Patterns in Rashi

author: Rabbi Yisrael Herczeg

In Patterns in Rashi Rabbi Yisrael Isser Zvi Herczeg, a noted Rashi scholar and translator of the Sapirstein Edition Rashi, examines many aspects of Rashi'sw commentary, showing us how these patterns help us understand the magnificent precision and clarity of Rahi's explanation. Drawing upon the classic commentators, the insights of Rav Tzadok HaKohen, and, of course, the words of Rashi Himself, Rabbi Herczeg has created a work tht opens our eyes to the subtleties and nuances of Rashi, allowing us an even greater appreciation of one of the towering geniuses of all time.

"While studying [Patterns in Rashi] I was exceedingly delighted to discover.. hidden treasures incorporated in the succinct chosen words of Rash. For the first time I was able to appredciate the greatness of Rashi's unparalleled ingenuity...This book will be accepted as a seminal contribution to our vast Torah liturature."
