An Essential Resource for Understanding the True Meaning of the Torah 'From time immemorial our experts have striven to show how the Written Torah and the Oral Torah are two sides of the same coin. Rabbi Avraham Yaakov Finkel has utilized his manifold talents of research, elucidation, and presentation to create a noteworthy commentary that fuses the written with the oral. I believe that this will remain a lasting literary achievement.' -Rabbi David Cohen, Congregation Gvul Yaavetz, Brooklyn, New York 'The noted author Rabbi Avraham Yaakov Finkel has offered up yet another indispensable literary offering at the table of the Jewish world. The Torah Revealed is a contribution that will enrich the scholar and layman alike. One is immediately introduced to the related teachings of rabbinic literature gleaned from the vast corpus of the Talmud and Midrash. This wealth of information has been carefully collected and organized from the broad and multifaceted body of rabbinic writings. My beracha is that the author continue to produce works of high quality and scholarship that not only enlighten but give everyone the inspiration to fulfill their own potential and greatness.' -Rabbi Noach Isaac Oelbaum, Congregation Nachlas Yitzchok, Kew Gardens, Hills, New York 'The prolific author in this his newest book has made a contribution to English Judaica literature that is similar to the one made to Hebrew literature by Rabbi Boruch Epstein over one hundred years ago in the highly acclaimed Torah Temima. May Rabbi Finkel have the merit to continue to enrich English-speaking Jewish homes with his faithful rendition of our illustrious heritage.' -Yisroel Rokowsky, Rosh HaYeshiva, Ohr Somayach, Tanenbaum Educational Center, Monsey, New York
