The Book of Isaiah: Volume 1

The Book of Isaiah begins with the prophet's castigation of the people for their spiritual backsliding, continuing in the second chapter with a description of the Messianic era. The prophet encourages the people in the face of the threat of Assyrian conquest as well as the threat of conquest by Aram and Samaria. There are also many allusions to the Messianic era as well as to the resurrection of the dead.

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.
