Regarded throughout the English-speaking world as the standard English translation of the Holy Scriptures, the JPS TANAKH has been acclaimed by scholars, rabbis, lay leaders, Jews, and Christians alike. The JPS TANAKH is an entirely original translation of the Holy Scriptures into contemporary English, based on the masoretic (the traditional Hebrew) text.

After spending a decade and a half studying the depths of Torah, Kaballah, Chasidus, and Spirituality, Moshe Gersht has gifted us with a new lens on life. With his spiritual guide It’s All the Same to Me, Moshe Gersht inspires listeners to discover the freedom and joy of a life lived in the deep connection of "sameness". Gersht introduces the powerful kaballistic idea of Hishtavus to explain how getting beyond our ego is not only essential to your happiness, but is also the key to loving the life you experience.

Story
The central theme of this book is modesty, a notion so simple and common that most of us would dismiss it as irrelevant to our daily lives. But Rabbi Manis Friedman asks us to look again. And as we do he explains, clearly and succinctly, how modesty can become a powerful tool for change. Gently and with humor, Rabbi Friedman helps us redirect our thinking about sexuality and refocus our ideas about intimacy. In so doing, he moves us toward a truer understanding of ourselves and how we can cope with the changing world around us.

Mussar is an illuminating, approachable, and highly practical set of teachings for cultivating personal growth and spiritual realization in the midst of day-to-day life. Here is an accessible and inspiring introduction to this Jewish spiritual path, which until lately has been best known in the world of Orthodox Judaism. The core teaching of Mussar is that our deepest essence is inherently pure and holy, but this inner radiance is obscured by extremes of emotion, desire, and bad habits.

Very Inspiring
This book provides a true awakening of your inner purpose and helps you realize that every experience, good or bad, has a learning purpose. It does not matter which religious background the reader has, the case stories and the message presented is very inspiring. A must read.

Beautiful faithful guide
I can’t say enough about how much I have learned from this. I re listen to this book a couple times a year and emerge reassured in my purpose in life and my place as one of Gods children. Every time I listen, I gain something new. This is a beautiful beautiful guide for life and has taught me so much about faith in God and the sacredness of the words of the Bible given to us by God as guides for our life on this Earth. I wish all of Esther Jungreis’ books were on audio, they are equally life changing.
