The Malbim Esther
With brilliant insight and unusual breadth of vision, the renowned Torah commentator, Rabbi Meir Leibush - the Malbim, unmasks the Megillah revealing it in all its depth and profound wisdom. In characteristic question and answer style, he gives the political and social background of the time, offering us a new understanding of the ancient story. Every word rings with meaning; every phrase tells an intricate and complex tale.
