Studies in Spirituality is a must-have book for any family interested in following the annual reading of the Torah. It presents an opportunity to explore the themes and deeper meaning of each parsha of the Torah. 

This lovely book allows everyone to explore the weekly parsha alone or in conversation with their family.

Of the book, Rabbi Sacks said, “I hope the very personal nature of these essays helps you find your own way to the Divine Presence, which is always there: the music beneath the noise, the call beneath the clamor, the voice of God within the human soul.”
