Nearly twenty-five years after the groundbreaking publication of the first-ever English language liberal Torah commentary we present The Torah: A Modern Commentary Revised Edition. This volume features updated commentary and translations including a gender-sensitive version of the JPS translation with largely gender-neutral God language and a completely fresh translation of Genesis and of the haftarot by the late Rabbi Chaim Stern. In addition the volume is reorganized by parashah and includes a helpful index and aliyot markers improving upon the 1981 original. As Rabbi David Ellenson President of the Hebrew Union College-Jewish Institute of Religion states "This book provide a dazzling compendium of sources both classical and modern and a variety of voices that will enhance worship and study of everyone."
