3.0 out of 5 stars Valuable Collection of Jewish Proverbs
This is a very good collection of Jewish proverbs. However, it should have been much better if the original Hebrew letters were shown instead of the transliterated ones.

5.0 out of 5 stars A nosh of Jewish wisdom. " Be wise- Travel light", May 19, 2005
This review is from: Dictionary of 1000 Jewish Proverbs (Hippocrene Bilingual Proverbs) (Paperback)
" A young tree bends, an old tree breaks"
" It is not good for man to be alone"
" A wise man listens to advice"
This book provides its wisdom alphabetically by subject. It provides an entry or two on each subject. Jewish Wisdom Light. But there are amusing things here and even if they are provided out of context and in such a way as to preclude full understanding of their original meaning they still can enlighten and provide pleasure.
There are of course far more extensive collections of Jewish Wisdom. This one is a good for a light read, a dip in here and there.
Enjoy the Nosherei.
