A perfectly beautiful book

A book that is the underpinning of the Jewish faith. I find that this is a book with incredible wisdom, knowledge, and general awe. This is a book to be revered and selected as a developmental and maturative piece of literature that is bound to develop and further maturate, any young person coming of age like myself. I enjoyed this book increasingly as it went on and I highly recommended it.

Just what the doctor ordered!

This reading of the Torah excels in all the areas that truly matter. The narrator conveys the story with true emotion. She commands strong and accurate pronuncuation of Hebrew names. The rhythm of the Torah as she reads is perfectly timed. I am a very hard to please critic when it comes to the way this book is read. So many times I hear it being done without conviction and passion. Finally ..... an excellent job has been done here. Thank you. So much. God bless Shabbot Shalom. 😇

beware of Old English KJV Bible usage

listen to it for 10 minutes and knew I would return it. not only is the introduction biased but the body of the tour uses KJV Bible passages can you say totally frustrating this is not what I purchase
