Used by students around the world as an essential learning tool!
The Book of Kings II begins with Elijah's confrontation with Ahaziah, king of Israel, and his subsequent ascent to Heaven. It takes us through the spiritual and political upheavels of the kingdom of Israel until its exile to Assyria. It also takes us through the reigns of the righteous kings of Judah, as well as the reigns of those who experienced spiritual failure, until the destruction of Jerusalem, and the beginning of the Babylonian exile. This invaluable aid to learning Tanach is used by students around the world! It provides the benefit of owning two sets in one, since each volume features both the complete Hebrew Mikraoth Gedoloth as well as a concise, modern English translation of the text with extensive commentary. In addition, each and every Rashi is translated, as are selections from the Ramban, Sforno, Rashbam, Ibn Ezra, from Talmudic and Midrashic sources, and numerous other commentaries never before translated. Rabbi Moshe Feinstein, zt"l, gave his unstinting approbation to this now classic series. These books are perfect for students and teachers who want a deeper understanding of Tanach.
