Exodus: A Parsha Companion

by David Fohrman

Overview

In this second volume of Parsha Companions, Rabbi David Fohrman delves into the biblical text, asking intriguing questions and detecting patterns that, once you see them, seem to leap off the page. He helps the reader really listen to the Torah – carefully, lovingly, and attentively. The reader’s reward is the chance to perceive the richness in the Torah many of us had never imagined was there, and to be touched deeply by a close encounter with the words of our Maker.
