Nobel Laureate Shmuel Yosef Agnon brings together what has always been at the heart of Jewish religious consciousness: the Sinai event, the Revelation, as memory and as continuously renewed experience. The sweep of his erudition and his skill as an anthologist make this one of his finest books. The verses of the Torah are elucidated by ancient and medieval commentaries and expanded upon by Agnon's own commentary. The translator, Michael Swirsky, further clarifies the text.
