Rabbi Blech, the master teacher whose dynamism inspires in the classroom, discloses the excitement that generates from hidden meanings lying beneath the surface of the biblical text and basic Hebrew words. This work will be helpful and valuable to those new to Torah study as an opportunity to taste multifaceted treasures of Judaism, as well as those more learned, enabling them to discover new meaning to previously observed. -- Rabbi Benjamin Yudin, Yeshiva University
In hundreds of illustrations dealing with a vast array of topics—Israel, God, Torah; life and death; truth and falsehood; good and evil; joy and sorrow; love and hatred; peace and war; the blessings of life (wealth, wisdom, soul, friends); man, woman, and family; biblical heroes and villains; and prophecies and predictions—the author conveys the major ideas of Judaism as they are expressed in the secrets built into simply Hebrew words. * gem *
