In These Words , liturgist Alden Solovy distills the Torah into its very essence: the individual words it contains.
From b\'reishit (in beginning) to shamayim (heavens) to zachor (remember), These Words will change the way you look at the Language of the Torah..
Then Solovy presents a beautiful poem--what he calls Poetic midrash--inspired by and interpreting each word.
For each word, he delves into the etymology, translation, and usage, providing deeper insights into familiar texts.
Echoing the Midrash that the Torah has seventy faces, Solovy selects seventy of its Hebrew words that are pregnant with meaning.
