The comprehensive commentary demonstrating the indivisibility of the written and oral TorahRabbi Yaakov Tzevi Mecklenburg wrote this masterful commentary on the Torah during the ascent of the haskalah movement, when Hebrew scholars in Lithuania and Russia rejected the oral interpretation of the Torah.With impeccable attention to detail, Rabbi Mecklenburg demonstrates the absolute indivisibility of the written Torah and oral Torah. He directs much of his commentary to disprove those who rejected the interpretations of the Mishnah, Talmud and Midrash, especially relating to issues of the correct understanding of Hebrew language.This influential body of work demonstrates, parasha by parasha, how the written Torah without the oral Torah is not only incomplete, but is against the Torah's moral and ethical principles.Author: Rabbi Yaakov Tzevi MecklenburgHardcover (7 volume slipcased set) 6.75" x 9.75"
