ALL ABOUT THE BOOK
The Illustrated Torah Book is a perfect gift for every celebration ! This Chumash (Five Books of Moses) is fully illustrated, colorful and attractive, and includes the weekly Torah portions and the Haftarot readings (weekly readings from the Writings and the Prophets).
A family treasure for generations to come.
The Torah is the foundation of Jewish identity, binding Jews through the ages in rich tapestry of faith. The Illustrated Torah is a long-awaited project bringing together the captivating artwork of Michal Meron, an Israel artist, and the current translation of the Five Books of Moses by the Jewish Publication Society.
Meron worked for over four years creating her striking full color paintings that were originally released as limited edition prints. Because of the demand for her artwork, the Studio in Old Jaffa and Gefen Publishing House, LTD. have collaborated with JPS to release the book; The Illustrated Torah is and original Humash, containing excerpts from all the Sidrot and Haftarot, the weekly readings.
Each Sidrah includes three interpretive elements: illustrations by Michal Meron, most containing quotations from the Hebrew text of the Torah or Haftarah portion; excerpts from, the JPS translation of that Sidrah and its Haftarah; and brief summary by DR. Ellen Frankel, noted author and scholar who writes that "None of these three elements explains the whole of the Sidrah of Haftarah; each illuminates only part of the whole."
Meron's personal style is characterized by the extensive use of bold colors on the naive style, similar to traditional American folk art, and by the incorporation of Hebrew text in her artwork.
