| 1. |  | The David Story: A Translation with Commentary of 1 and 2 Samuel from W. W. Norton & Company Price: $11.53 Customer Review:  I really like how he looked at four different texts/translations and decided which one he thought fit best in each context while at the same time footnoting whatever the Masoretic text said, whether he chose it or not. I would have liked it better if there had been parallel Hebrew and English texts,... |

| 2. |  | The Five Books of Moses: A Translation with Commentary from W. W. Norton & Company Price: $26.37 Customer Review:  Alter, Robert. "The Five Books of Moses: A Translation with Commentary", W.W, Norton, 2004. A Beautiful Edition Amos Lassen I am always on the lookout for new editions and new commentaries of "The Five Books of Moses". The beauty of the books is that they can be read and reread and... |

| 3. |  | How to Read the Bible: A Guide to Scripture, Then and Now from Free Press Customer Review: This is a truly excellent reference book for anyone interested in the history of Biblical interpretation. Indeed, the book might more accurately be called "How the Bible has been Read," since for any given section, it gives an overview of traditional readings, both Christian and Jewish, followed by... |

| 4. |  | Genesis: Translation and Commentary from W. W. Norton & Company Price: $10.85 Customer Review: For so long I naively believed in the theory of evolution. But then I discovered this book and realised I was completely mistaken - the world was actually created by God in six days! Quite remarkable. I won't make the mistake of putting blind faith in tatty old folk tales written by senile old... |

| 6. |  | The Art Of Biblical Poetry from Basic Books Price: $15.75 Customer Review: Alter continues here what he started in ' The Art of Biblical Narrative' and applies the techniques of literary criticism to the Biblical text. He does not discard Lowth's discovery of parallelism as the key technique of Biblical poetry but rather sharpens and intensifies the meaning of this... |

| 7. |  | War and Peace from Knopf Price: $22.20 Customer Review: War and Peace is, without question, the greatest historical novel ever written. However, if you carry a copy of War and Peace with you anywhere, you will be subjected to ridicule of many varieties. This, of course, says more about the critics than the reader. It tells us first that most people... |

| 8. |  | A Secular Age from Belknap Press Price: $24.62 Customer Review: An exhaustive, very learned string of reviews on Taylor's study can be found at "The Immanent Frame" ([...]), a blog maintained by the Social Science Research Council (SSRC). After all that has been said, I will only add that Taylor's book is work of synthetic and imaginative genius. It offers... |

He has a series of "My People's...." books which examine the practice and evolution of Jewish ritual and prayer. His "My People's... |
