Translated by R'Aryeh Kaplan. This volume completes the account of the Exodus. Here we witness the first Passover, the mass migration from Egypt, the splitting of the Red Sea, and the miracle of the manna-all told in the inimitable style of Rabbi Yaakov Culi,. This great sage not only had the power to bring a story to life, but also to do so in the light of the interpretations of the great Torah sages of all previous generations. The Exodus was more than a mere episode in the life of the Jewish people. In the Exodus, and the ensuing weeks, the Israelites developed into a people uniquely related to G-D. In providing deeper insights into the story, the MeAm Lo'ez also provides a more profound insight into the very roots of Judaism. Besides being a foremost expert on Midrashic lore, Rabbi Culi was also a leading halakhic expert. He demonstrates his power in this volume in his discussion of the rules of calendar making, and the laws of eruv.
