Mishneh Torah - Set 18 Volumes (Hebrew/English) by Rabbi Moshe ben Maimon, Eliyahu Touger - 2010

A new translation and commentary explaining the Rambam's (Maimonides) words line by line, with notes, by Rabbi Eliyahu Touger. This translation enables everyone to learn from the wisdom of the Rambam.

The Rambam's tombstone states: "From Moshe to Moshe, there was no one like Moshe ." Moshe Rabeinu gave the Jewish people the Torah. Moshe Ben Maimon, the Rambam, wrote the Mishneh Torah to serve as "a compilation of the entire Oral Law, including the ordinances, customs, and decrees that were enacted from the time of Moses, our teacher, until the completion of the Talmud," so that "a person will not need another text at all with regard to any Jewish law." This monumental work enables "a person to first study the Written Law, and then study this text and comprehend the entire Oral Law from it."

This great classic is now accessible to an English reader in a free-flowing, but scholarly translation with a vowelized Hebrew text (menukad). It includes a concentrated, yet inclusive commentary that presents a digest of the centuries of Torah scholarship which have been devoted to the study of the Mishneh Torah.
