Alshich on Vayikra | Timeless wisdom on Chumash by Rabbi Moshe Alshich

In his brilliant analysis of Vayikra, the Alshich uses every available method of understanding the Torah. His unique commentary sheds light on even the most cryptic passages. The Alshich poses questions that perplex the intelligent reader of the Torah and then offers in-depth analyses and original interpretations of the text. Time and again, he points out how seemingly haphazard sentence structures are rife with nuances that are pivotal to our understanding of the Torah’s text. The Alshich’s explanations demonstrate the Divine nature of the Written Torah and show us how the Oral Torah and its teachings are implicit in the wording of the Torah itself.
He poses such diverse questions as: What is the connection between Adam HaRishon, the Akeidah, and Yom Kippur? To which korbanos can the tzaddik and the baal teshuvah be compared, and why? Our Sages give many reasons for the deaths of Nadav and Avihu. How could they give these reasons when the Torahsays specifically that they died because they brought an unauthorized fire before Hashem? Chazal said that the Jewish People would be subject to four exiles. Where is there any reference to them in the verses of Vayikra?

These questions as well as hundreds of others are answered as the Alshich applies his encyclopedic knowledge and depth of thought to the Torahverses in this unique and enlightening commentary on Sefer Vayikra.
