Commentary on the Torah

by Nahmanides (Translator)

Rabbi Moshe ben Nachman, the 13th century Jewish leader and scholar known as Ramban, earned himself a place alongside Rashi as one of Judaism's primary Torah commentators. His commentary, which encompasses a vast panorama of Jewish learning, language, halachah, aggadah, philosophy, Kabbalah, and history offers a penetrating analysis of the Torah that will both enlighten and inspire. Rabbi Dr. Chavel's elegant English translation is based on the original Hebrew manuscripts. Insightful notes offer clarification of Ramban's commentary and provide his sources.

One of the greatest Torah authorities. This whole five volume set is wonderful.

Slow going, but more rationalistic and thus more appealing to me than Rashi. Lots of grammatical points.
