Ever since the earliest times, Jewish scholars have looked to the Hebrew language as a source of holiness and a wellspring of wisdom. This book gathers many examples of the meanings hidden within Hebrew words and has explained them to the modern reader. It presents Jewish insight and teachings.

Judaism is primarily a religion of actions rather than beliefs. When the Jewish people accepted God's covenant, they committed themselves first to obedience and practice, and then to striving to understand the message implicit in the Torah. This textbook presents a comprehensive explication of the Jewish faith.
