Jews are known as the "People of the Book" - and our most sacred book and the very source of our peoplehood and tradition is the Hebrew Bible. Known in Hebrew as Tanach, the Bible consists of the Torah or the Five Books of Moses (also sometimes called a Chumash in printed versions), as well as the Prophets and Writings.

Our store carries a selection of Hebrew Bibles from the most renowned Israeli publishers, including editions with full English translations and commentary, as well as replicas of traditional Torah scrolls that include the entire Hebrew text of the Five Books of Moses, printed on paper rolls that resemble the parchment scrolls used in synagogues around the world. Any one of our wonderful Bible options will help you connect to and study the Scriptures and celebrate our people's special relationship with our holy texts!
