Few mere mortals have ever embarked on such bold and heart-stirring adventures, overcome myriad monstrous perils, or outwitted scheming vengeful gods, quite as stylishly and triumphantly as Greek heroes.

Witness wily Oedipus solve the riddle of the Sphinx and discover how Bellerophon captures the winged horse Pegasus to help him slay the monster Chimera.

Heroes is the story of what we mortals are truly capable of - at our worst and our very best.

This title includes text in English & Hebrew. "Leviticus", the third book of the Bible, provides the key tenet of "Kabbalah": Love thy neighbour as thyself. It also sets out rules about dietary restrictions, sacrificial offerings, cleanliness, disease, certain behaviours, and more. "Kabbalah" reveals the code behind these regulations, explains what they really mean, and makes their relevance to modern life both clear and compelling. For instance, sacrifice is not about killing animals, but about facing and overcoming obstacles. This new rendition of "Leviticus" is the third book of the Kabbalistic Bible, which forms a bridge between "the Zohar", the sacred text of Kabbalah, and the Torah or Bible. Edited and annotated by noted scholar and teacher Yehuda Berg, "Leviticus" features the writings of renowned Kabbalists Rav Yehuda Ashlag, Rav Yehuda Brandwein, and Rav P. S. Berg. This book uses a user-friendly format, with the Hebrew and English printed on facing pages, and printed front-to-back.
