The Portion of Silver Volume I: Bereshit - Shemot

Discover a surprising and compelling connection between the weekly Torah portion and the worlds of economics and investing! Born from a popular weekly column on the Israeli financial news site Bizportal, this book offers a fresh look at the Torah, revealing its contemporary relevance to the financial landscape. The essays weave together the traditional wisdom of spiritual giants—from the literal and Midrashic analysis of Rashi and the philosophical depth of Nachmanides (Ramban), to the ethical and legal insights of Maimonides (Rambam) and the modern thought of Rabbi Kook. In a fascinating synthesis, these teachings 'collaborate' with the strategies of Warren Buffett and other modern economists and investors to create a rich, original, and profound perspective. This work is intended for anyone interested in economics, investing, and Jewish thought who seeks to discover new, inspiring, and enriching bridges between the spiritual and the material. It is an opportunity to open a new window into understanding the Torah and explore its profound implications for our modern economic and social lives.
