Note: Actual verses , Hebrew text, commentaries, quotes, instructions are clearly shown by using different font styles and sizes. Commentaries font fize - small.

Worth every penny
This is, without a doubt, the finest Chumash I’ve ever owned and the one I use regularly. It’s truly a work of art. From the detailed text on the hard cover to the impeccable binding, high-quality paper, and beautifully designed Hebrew font, everything about this edition is exceptional. The commentary is insightful and enhances the learning experience. I also appreciate the translation—it’s clear, accessible, and flows naturally, without the archaic "Thou" and "Thee" that often clutter other translations. I particularly love that they use “HaShem” instead of “Lord” when translating G-d’s name. It’s a more accurate and preserves the divinity of the name, which can sometimes be diluted when "Lord" is used, especially considering that many people hold the title of “Lord.” My only minor complaint is that I wish they hadn’t included the Rashi script. It can be difficult to read, and it's summarized anyways in the commentaries. Without it, the book would have been lighter and more compact. Ideally, I would love to see an exact version of this Chumash but without the Rashi script included.

Excellent translation with profound commentary.
When choosing religious books it's important to read the details in the description. This Stone edition is in both Hebrew and English and contains both the Oral and Written laws. It also contains the Haf Torah ans other important writings. It uses our sages commentaries which delve into the more truly important explanations which is you don't know Hebrew will introduce a new learner to the deeper meanings behind the Hebrew letters which actually have 4 or more meaning held within each letter. They can even be opposites that only people who read The Torah and for the first time learn there is so much more behind what you think you're reading. These saves were some of the greatest Kabbalists of all time and It's not the popular Kabbalah people hear about when they see someone wearing a red string on their wrist which is not Kaballah and the Kabàllah is just a diagram but it's not explained unless you have read and learned the Talmud and then at least the actual conversions that were done by Daniel Matt out of Berkeley from the original Aramaic. It took him 17 years to complete. So the inclusion of commentaries from the Rambam or some of the greatest in history. It's not even advised to begin the Zohar or Kabbalah until age 40 so the inclusion of some of their observations is a priceless addition. Thia volume is also a translation from the 1700's and is absolutely one or the best on the market and for the price offered on Amazon is a terrific price for a work of this substance and depth. I am very impressed with it and love that it offers both the written and oral laws. Most people think that the 10 commandments were chiseled in stone but they were actually put into sapphire blocks that contained The Torah. If you are wanting something where you will learn things you never expected to - this is a great book to purchase or for the more learned it's a purchase you should make immediately.

Forse la migliore traduzione esistente del Pentateuco
Il LIbro dei libri è forse il libro peggio tradotto che ci sia. Innumerevoli sono le vere e proprie cretinate, se non addirittura mistificazioni e falsificazioni intenzionali, presenti in tutte le traduzioni che ho visto, in Francese, Inglese, Italiano e Spagnolo. La buonissima traduzione Inglese offerta da questa edizione, oltre a moltissime note utilissime e commenti antichissimi, anch'essi tradotti dall'Ebraico, la rendono indispensabile vista praticamente l'assenza di traduzioni decenti.
