Abravanel's World of Torah: Vayikra, Volume 1: The Meat of the Matter

This volume comprises the first five parshiyot of Sefer Vayikra (Leviticus). It mostly pertains to Temple sacrifices and clarifies a central part of the Torah, one that is widely misunderstood and largely unappreciated. Exploration and discovery-these are Abravanel's hallmarks. With unequaled passion for probing Biblical mysteries, a quest begins. Limitless gems of eternal wisdom enticingly sparkle at every destination. Bereshit, a room of locked secrets, contains many doors. Thankfully,millennia of scholars and commentators have handed down hallowed keys for posterity. Utilizing integrated knowledge of the entire Bible coupled with Sinai's Oral Traditions-together the sum total of man's moral and ethical knowledge-Geonim and Rishonim gradually cracked Torah's vaults ajar. A fifteenth century tour de force,Don Yitzchak Abravanel's magnum opus thoroughly revolutionized Biblical exegesis.His works have never been translated from their original Hebrew. Until now.
