(Hebrew)","description":"\u003cp\u003eMost Hebrew speakers who read the weekly Torah portion assume the Bible's Hebrew is simply their own language. That is exactly where many readers go wrong: they read today's dictionary, customs and concepts back into the ancient text, sometimes landing close to the truth and sometimes far from the original meaning, precisely because the words seem so familiar. This book is devoted to that phenomenon: modern Hebrew as an obstacle to understanding the Bible.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe book consists of short essays, one for each weekly Torah portion. Each essay takes a single word or expression from the portion (or its haftarah), shows how it is commonly misunderstood, and reconstructs its original meaning using the Bible itself and its commentators from the Sages to the present day. With a foreword by Dr. Ruvik Rosenthal, the book is faithful both to Jewish tradition and to scholarly method, and is written for Bible lovers, language enthusiasts, Torah scholars and the general public (English parallel title: \"Bible Seen from Here: Does Our Hebrew Understand the Bible?\").\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis is the Hebrew edition.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Moshe Eckstein","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":54337062502710,"sku":null,"price":23.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0993\/2092\/2422\/files\/i293291.67159.jpg?v=1785315912","url":"https:\/\/www.gefenpublishing.com\/products\/tanach-sheroim-mikahn-can-modern-hebrew-understand-the-bible","provider":"Gefen Publishing House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
