Book Description

January 1, 1985 0910818584 978-0910818582
The study of gematria, the hidden meaning of Hebrew words based on the numerical value of the letters, has been called the spice of Torah. It is a fascinating tool of traditional Torah interpretation. This reference volume lists each and every word of the Pentateuchin Hebrew with its English translationaccording to its gematria, enabling anybody to experiment and explore the possibilities inherent in this methodology of interpretation. The books format has been praised as a great convenience and is invaluable for rabbis, scholars, and students.

5.0 out of 5 stars best $14.95 I ever spent!, January 23, 2012
This review is from: Spice of Torah-Gematria (Hardcover)
To those who it may concern:
This is one of the first books I added to my library when I started my study of the Torah in the late 1990's.
I have it almost constantly by my workstation and always close at hand. With this book I can examine the pronunciation of any word in the Torah, its pointing and value. All I have to do any time I want to inquire is count its value and go to the listing in the book. It is written to be read like a proper Hebrew book right to left. I see now that it was not reprinted and the value of it on the sale lists is high! This book really needs to be reprinted - I have found none like it since. Plain and straightforward in its usability it cannot be outdone by any of the number-word studies available. Another thing that makes the book so valuable to any student of the Torah is that it is prefaced by Rabbi Schochet's wonderful introductory essay. If you have need to study - this book belongs in your library. But in all truth a person should not have to pay an arm and a leg for any book of this value!!! This book really needs to be made available in a paperback edition at the very least and sooner than later - and without omission of the original content in any way.
Respectfully submitted,
Manuel Colunga-Hernandez
