Very good. Answers any question. It's all there in the index. Excellent books. Overnight is really overnight from these guys. Wow

This book is very well written , lucid about many of the reasons and how-to 's of mitzwot, written by a contemporary scholar. It was immediately enthusiastically adopted by friends, who put it on their shopping list as well...

Rabbi Asher Meir has accomplished a rare feat. He has written a commentary on the famous Kitzur Shulchan Aruch (Code of Jewish Law) that is at once meticulously researched and referenced, and yet remains accessible to the reader with little or no Jewish background.

Mitzvot, or commandments, provide the structure or underpinning that guides observant Jews in every aspect of their private and public lives. The Kitzur is a codified Jewish Law book that is owned and referred to often by many Jewish families in the English-speaking world.

"Meaning in Mitzvot" follows "the Kitzur" chapter by chapter, expanding on the deeper meanings of the mitzvot. Each chapter is brief, extensively referenced, and easily readable by those with or without background in Judaism or Jewish texts.
