Dear colleagues,

The Simon Wiesenthal Center is now accepting applications for the 
Jack Voorzanger Archival Internship.  This is a special opportunity 
for a student in a graduate study program in Library/Information 
Science or a related field who is interested in hands-on experience 
working with the Simon Wiesenthal Center archival collection, 
focusing primarily on the Holocaust.  The internship is effective 
from January 3-August 31, 2017 and includes a stipend.  The 
application deadline is November 4, 2016.


Jack Voorzanger was a Holocaust survivor who was a beloved long-time

[ha-Safran] Book of Deuteronomy - Mikra Leyisrael

[Celestina Levant]

Hello,
We would like to introduce a new title published by The Hebrew University 
Magnes Press and Am Oved:

Book of Deuteronomy
 Two Vol. Set
Mikra Leyisrael
By Jeffrey H. 
Tigay
Edited by: Shmuel Ahituv
Translation: David Louvish, Dalia Amara

The publication of the commentary on the book of Deuteronomy is a moment for 
students of the Bible and for the educated Hebrew reader to celebrate. Now, for 
the first time, we have a critical Hebrew commentary on the book of Deuteronomy.
The author, Jeffrey Tigay, is emeritus professor in the Department of Near 
Eastern Languages and Civilizations at the University of Pennsylvania in 
Philadelphia.

The commentary is part of the series Mikra Leyisrael (Bible for Israel), a 
series of critical commentaries on the Bible whose authors are recognized 
scholars at universities in Israel and abroad.  The commentaries make extensive 
use of the best of traditional Jewish exegesis of the Bible and modern Biblical 
scholarship and the disciplines that contribute to understanding the Bible in 
the context of the cultures of the ancient Near East – philology and the 
history and archaeology of the region – and literary scholarship.

Prof. Tigay’s commentary is a must for all who wish to study the book of 
Deuteronomy and deepen their understanding of it.
This new commentary benefits from Biblical research that has taken place during 
the more than 20 years since the first edition of this commentary (by the same 
author) was published in English by the Jewish Publication Society of America 
as the final volume of their Torah Commentary, and it deals with numerous 
additional matters of interest to Hebrew readers. Read
