Esther: A Modern Commentary

Rabbis Leonard S. Kravitz and Kerry M. Olitzky offer a translation and commentary on the Book of Esther, combinining traditional rabbinic views and contemporary literary criticism to show that while Esther tells the story of Purim, that’s not the whole m’gillah.

Jewish U: Revised Edition

Scott Aaron’s revised guide for college-bound students and their parents discusses finding a Jewish home on campus, talking to non-Jewish roommates about Judaism, and much more.
