Planning for a new year with Rabbi Maimon

"Shir Hashirim", also known as the Song of Songs or Song of Solomon, is a book in the Hebrew Bible celebrating the beauty and passion of romantic love. The text consists of a series of love poems and dialogues between a male and female lover, expressing mutual desire and admiration. Its rich imagery and sensuous language have made it a beloved and often interpreted text. Traditionally, it is read during Passover, but its themes have resonated throughout history in literature, art, and music.

This edition of Tehillim provides an innovative interlinear translation, allowing readers to follow the Hebrew text while understanding the English translation. It includes commentary from classic sources and features a unique layout to maintain concentration during prayer.

The Shulchan Aruch, written by Rabbi Yosef Caro and supplemented by Rabbi Moshe Isserles, is a foundational text of Jewish law. It is divided into four sections: Orach Chaim (laws of prayer, Shabbat, and holidays), Yoreh Deah (laws of kosher, usury, vows, etc. ), Even HaEzer (laws of marriage and divorce), and Choshen Mishpat (monetary laws and torts). The work aims to clarify Jewish law by presenting all known sources on particular issues, especially addressing the differences between Sephardic and Ashkenazic customs. It has become the standard legal code of Judaism and is widely consulted by rabbis and scholars.

The Zohar is a group of books that discuss the nature of God, the origin and structure of the universe, the nature of souls, redemption, and mystical psychology. It uses allegories and metaphysical principles to interpret Scripture, presenting the law as a living being with physical and spiritual components. The book emphasizes the interconnectedness of the natural and spiritual worlds and the importance of purity of life and thought to achieve spiritual enlightenment.
