The Book of Samuel 1

The Book of Samuel I encompasses the transition period between the Judges and the Kings. Succeeding Eli, Samuel terminates the era of the Judges, and annoints the first two kings of Israel, namely, Saul and David. Hence, they are considered to be his products, and their histories are included in this book together with his own autobiography.

This invaluable aid to learning Tanach is used by students around the world! It provides the benefit of owning two sets in one, since each volume features both the complete Hebrew Mikraoth Gedoloth as well as a concise, modern English translation of the text with extensive commentary.

In addition, each and every Rashi is translated, as are selections from the Ramban, Sforno, Rashbam, Ibn Ezra, from Talmudic and Midrashic sources, and numerous other commentaries never before translated. Rabbi Moshe Feinstein, zt"l, gave his unstinting approbation to this now classic series.
