The Women’s Torah Commentary
New Insights From Women Rabbis
On the 54 Weekly Torah Portions
Elyse Goldstein (Ed.)
In this groundbreaking book, more than 50 women rabbis have come together to offer their own inspiring commentaries on the 54 weekly parashot. For the first time, women’s unique experiences and perspectives are applied to the entire Five Books of Moses, offering us the first comprehensive commentary by women.
Included are commentaries by the first women ever ordained in the Reform, Reconstructionist, and Conservative movements; women from across these denominations who are congregational leaders, Hillel college campus rabbis, community service professionals, academics and chaplains; women from the United States, Canada, Israel, and South America.
This book is a worthy companion to Gunther Plaut’s Torah Commentaries. The call number for this book is:
