Torah Anthology Me'am Lo'ez
The Torah Anthology is a
clear, modern translation of Me'am Lo'ez, hailed as "the outstanding work of
Ladino literature." Written by Rabbi Yaakov Culi, one of the greatest
Sephardic sages of his times, the book was first published in 1730. It
changed the spiritual climate of the entire Mediterranian region.
Eastern Jews esteemed Me'am
Lo'ez as a major classic, affording it the same status as the Talmud and
Mishnah. Reading it each day was a religious duty; it was a highly popular
text for synagogue classes held each evening
Many
count Me'am Lo'ez among the best commentaries ever written on the Torah - in
any language. The book is a veritable enclyclopedia of Jewish knowledge
In 1967, Moznaim
(Vagshal) put out a Hebrew translation, Yalkut Me'am Lo'ez, and it proved
to be one of the most popular Hebrew books ever published. Close to a
quater million have already been sold.
