The reader butchers the Jewish names

This is not great for a book about something so close to the Jewish heart

Concerning the Sabbath

I can't speak to the perspective of others nor the orators skills with Hebrew words, but the content of the Rabbi's text is fundamental to all as Jew's or Christian profession of the need for Sabbath. Just brilliant.

I will listen and re-listen to this and the physical book as often as possible.
