Even as we continue our numerous still-ongoing projects, the Foundation’s scholars are working on making other classic works available to the English-speaking public.
Tosafos
Thanks to the groundbreaking work of the Schottenstein Edition of Talmud Bavli, tens of thousands of people are studying Talmud and understanding it as never before. Now they are thirsting for a deeper, more comprehensive understanding. Tosafos takes Talmud study to the next level.
The study of Tosafos requires broad knowledge and a fine understanding. By providing background, explaining concepts, and comprehensively presenting Tosafos’ citations, the ArtScroll Tosafos enables everyone to delve ever deeper into the Sea of Talmud. Tractate Chagigah Vol. 2 is in preparation. We are grateful to Rabbi Morris Esformes Z"L for dedicating Seder Moed of this monumental series. Dedication opportunities are now available.
Ein Yaakov
The Schottenstein Edition of Ein Yaakov, the Aggadic portions of the Talmud, is dedicated by Jay & Jeanie Schottenstein and family. The elucidation and notes draw upon classic and contemporary Aggadah commentaries to explore the text’s many layers of meaning. Selections of illuminating “Insights” glean these timeless teachings of our Sages and apply their lessons to our daily lives. Dedication opportunities for this exciting new project are available.
Haas Family Edition Zera Shimshon on Chumash and Megillos
Rabbi Shimshon Chaim Nachmani was an 18th-century Italian sage
who was renowned for his commentaries that combine unique textual
analysis with underlying Kabbalistic principles. A classic in its time, it
assured its readers of Divine blessings. Recently rediscovered, the
original Hebrew is very popular. ArtScroll’s translation of Zera Shimshon
is a great achievement, and now this great work on Chumash is being
rendered in English.
Milstein Edition Early Prophets with the Teachings of the Talmud
Early Prophets with the Teachings of the Talmud is a
unique original commentary that allows us to see
what the Oral Torah says about the verses of the Prophets. The original
text of the Prophets and an easy-to-follow explanation appear with
the verse that was cited in the Mishnah, Talmud, or Midrash, profoundly
enriching our understanding of the material.
This work is dedicated by Asher David and Michal Milstein.
All-Hebrew Sephardic Siddur
Following the broad acceptance and success of the
Hebrew-English Siddur Kol Simchah, dedicated by Jay
and Jeanie Schottenstein and family, comes an all-Hebrew
Sephardic Siddur, dedicated by Asher and Miriam Peretz.

The Ryzman Family Edition Hebrew Midrash Rabbah will enhance
the study and understanding of this monumental collection
of teachings by the Talmudic Sages — the

of the Chumash and Megillos.

dedicated by visionary sponsors.
Dedication opportunities are now available.
Zichron Asher Herzog Edition Hebrew Edition of Targum Onkelos
Following the success of
the Zichron Meir English Edition, with the new Hebrew Edition of Targum
Onkelos, those more comfortable in Hebrew will be able to gain a better
understanding of the interpretation of Onkelos and enhance their understanding
of Chumash. The definitive Aramaic interpretive translation of
the Torah is elucidated and annotated in Hebrew, along with notes that
explain and clarify those places where Onkelos appears to add his own
phrase or where he deviates from the simple meaning of the verse, as
well as footnotes that include background information and insights of
other commentators.
This series is dedicated by Yaakov and Beatrice Herzog and their family.
Haas Family Edition of Pele Yoeitz
Pele Yoeitz is an encyclopedia of Jewish ethics, prayer,
behavior, guidance, and thought. This 19th-century
classic was authored by the renowned halachic authority,
ethicist, and kabbalist Rav Yehudah Papo, rabbi of
Silistra, Bulgaria.

that range from philosophy to halachah to practical advice.
This series is dedicated by Yitzchok Menachem and Gitty Haas and their family. Volume 1 is dedicated by The Alon Family. Volume 2 is dedicated by The Ratner Family.
Wengrowsky Spanish Edition of the Chumash
with Teachings of the Talmud
The Wengrowsky Spanish Edition of the Chumash with the Teachings of the Talmud, first published by the Foundation in English, is distinctive because it contains a unique Chumash commentary, where the original text of the Oral Torah and
an easy-to-follow explanation appear with the verse that was cited in
the Mishnah or Talmud.
This series is sponsored by Mr. and Mrs. Jacobo Wengrowsky and family.
The Elkouby Family Pocket-Size Edition of the
Schottenstein Mishnah Elucidated
The Schottenstein Edition Mishnah Elucidated has
become the most popular Mishnah series in English.
The Mesorah Heritage Foundation received numerous requests from
those using the Mishnayos for class study, programs, camps, yahrzeit
learning, and shivah houses for a convenient pocket-size edition that

the entire Shisha Sidrei Mishnah. We were happy to oblige, introducing
the Elkouby Family Edition Mishnah, a 65-volume pocket-size
set of the Schottenstein Edition Mishnah Elucidated.
The EOM Edition Kisvei HaRambam
Enter the thought-world of one of the greatest Rishonim — and of other great Rishonim who discussed
and critiqued his works. In Kisvei HaRambam, the writings
of the Rambam are translated phrase-by-phrase,
annotated, and elucidated with additional insights. Kisvei HaRambam includes the Rambam’s famous
introduction to Cheilek; the Thirteen Principles of Faith;
essays on the Afterlife, Providence, and free will; relevant chapters from Mishneh Torah; a letter of encouragement to a struggling Jew; and much
more.
Yesod V'Shoresh Ha'Avodah
We are living in a time when most of our fellow Jews
feel that their tefillah should be better.
Yesod V'Shoresh HaAvodah, the authoritative 18th-century
guide to heartfelt prayer and inspired service of Hashem, deals uniquely
with common questions and more. This edition includes a phrase-by-phrase
translation and elucidation, detailed explanatory notes, and a summary at
the end of each chapter.
Hebrew-Only Selichos — Minhag Lita/Ashkenaz
Selichos, the supplicatory prayers recited before and during the Days
of Awe, are among the most poetic and stirring tefillos.
In this Hebrew-Only Selichos, in Nusach Ashkenaz, the tefillos are
beautifully typeset, with clear instructions in English that are easy to follow.
The complete Hebrew text has been reset in crisp, modern type, with
attractive, clear page layouts, in classic ArtScroll style, making davening
a pleasurable and uplifting experience.
This edition is dedicated by the Wealcatch Family .
The Schottenstein Edition
Elucidated Rashi on Chumash
The Elucidated Rashi will be a ten-volume groundbreaking work containing a comprehensive
and thorough presentation of Rashi's commentary
on Chumash. The expanded elucidation is written in a contemporary and easy-to-understand
style, while the notes focus on explaining "what's bothering
Rashi" and how Rashi resolves his questions. A short introduction to each
Rashi provides a preview of the topic to be discussed.
Copious insights contain an in-depth analysis of Rashi's words, the
underlying concepts he discusses, and, where applicable, disagreements
between Rashi and other commentators.
This series is dedicated by Jay and Jeanie Schottenstein and family. The sefarim are dedicated by the Wolf, Dessler, and Ginsberg families in
memory of Mr. Hirsch Wolf z"l.

Talmud
* The Schottenstein Editions of the Babylonian (“Bavli”) Talmud — 73 volumes in the English Edition and 73 in the Hebrew Edition. In the words of Lord Immanuel Jakobovits, the late Chief Rabbi of
the British Commonwealth, it is “one of the most momentous
publishing efforts gracing the entire length of Jewish history.”
* The on-going Compiled about 1,650 years ago, the Jerusalem Talmud has long been the most neglected of our greatest classics. Very complex and difficult to understand, it has been closed to all but exceptional scholars. These new editions of the Jerusalem Talmud, in both English and Hebrew, are opening minds to this basic treasure. Dedication opportunities are still available in these historic, unprecedented editions.
These monumental undertakings have been made possible thanks to the generosity of Jay and Jeanie Schottenstein and family
of Columbus, Ohio, and more than 250 visionary patrons who have dedicated Sedarim and volumes, and many others who have become Talmud Associates.

The Sammy Yitzchak Farkas Edition of the
Schottenstein Interlinear Siddurim and
Machzorim Following the Customs of
Eretz Yisrael
The Schottenstein Interlinear Series, with the English translation under the Hebrew word, inaugurated a greater degree of understanding of our prayers. These editions are especially designed for our brothers and sisters in Eretz Yisrael.
EOM Edition Derashos HaRan
Rabbeinu Nissim ben Reuven of Gerona’s classic
expositions of the fundamentals of Judaism comprise
twelve discourses that explore a broad range of topics
and address many fundamentals of Jewish belief, philosophy,
and practice. Making this classic work available
in English — translated, annotated, and elucidated — is a valuable
service to the Jewish people.
All-Hebrew Machzorim Following the Customs of Eretz Yisrael
Following the success of the interlinear siddurim and machzorim for those in Eretz
Yisrael, we present all-Hebrew machzorim
with Hebrew halachos and instructions following
the customs of Eretz Yisrael.
There are currently two volumes available in this series: Machzor
Shiras Naomi for Shavuos and Machzor Yemei Simchah for Succos.
Zichron Meir English Edition of Targum Onkelos
Targum Onkelos, “the Translation of Onkelos,” is the definitive Aramaic translation and interpretation of the Torah. Rashi is replete with references to Onkelos. Targum Onkelos is so fundamental that the Sages instituted that one should read the Torah parashah twice and Targum Onkelos once every week (Berachos 8a).
This edition is dedicated in memory of Rabbi Meir Zlotowitz ז“ל . It
is dedicated by an anonymous admirer of his and a generous supporter of our work. The dedicators of each individual volume are Yaakov and Beatrice Herzog and their family, of Toronto. The Herzogs are dedicators of several Foundation volumes. We are gratified that such a distinguished family has chosen to be ardent supporters of our work.
This ground-breaking elucidation translates Onkelos and explains places where Onkelos appears to add his own phrase and where he deviates from the simple meaning of the verse. We place words of Targum directly under the Hebrew of the Chumash text to help the reader master Aramaic.
This magnificent project is now complete.
Milstein Edition Chumash with Teachings of the Talmud
This new Chumash features the text and translation of the Torah accompanied by excerpts from the Mishnah and Talmud — both Bavli and Yerushalmi — that refer to and interpret the pasuk.
This easy-reading adaptation of the Talmudic teachings opens a door to the riches that lie within the Written Torah, and vastly enhances the readers' appreciation for the Torah's precise wording and the relationship between the Written Torah and the Oral Torah.
This work cites Sefer HaChinuch to briefly list each of the 613 mitzvos in the pesukim where they are given.
This groundbreaking work is dedicated by Asher David and Michal
Milstein.
Ryzman Hebrew Edition of the Mishnah
A multilevel all-Hebrew elucidation of Mishnah for the layman and talmid chacham alike, this 27-volume edition, dedicated by Zvi and Betty Ryzman, combines ease, clarity, and thoroughness. Everyone can learn at his level — quickly or in depth. After each perek, there is a review of the halachos as they appear in the Shulchan Aruch. This year we celebrated the completion of this 27-volume Hebrew Edition.
Sephardic Siddur — Kol Simchah
The ArtScroll Siddur has become the most popular Siddur in history and now Sephardic communities have an ArtScroll Siddur of their own. Siddur Kol Simchah, dedicated by Jay & Jeanie Schottenstein and family, has already became enormously popular. It includes: the nosah of the various communities; flowing ArtScroll translation; enriching commentary; Sephardic transliteration; crystal clear, easy-to-follow English instructions; comprehensive Halachah section; Shem Hashem in the Sephardic tradition.
Hebrew Sefer HaChinuch
Sefer HaChinuch is one of the great medieval classics. It lists all 613 commandments with their rationale and basic laws. ArtScroll’s English edition is an acknowledged classic. Now, a team of scholars is adapting it to a 7-volume Hebrew version. Reviews of the work in progress describe it as a stunning triumph in the making. Dedicated by Yaakov and Beatrice Herzog and their family.
Shaar Habitachon of Chovos HaLevavos
The classic Mussar work is Chovos HaLevavos, and the section of
this seminal work that gives people encouragement and perspective
in times of crisis is Shaar HaBitachon, Chapter of Trust. For centuries,
hundreds of thousands of Jews — perhaps millions — have turned to
Shaar HaBitachon to fortify their faith and gain the strength to persevere
and overcome obstacles.
Presented in the enormously popular ArtScroll style — elucidated
translation, commentary and explanations — this new work will be a
forerunner of ArtScroll’s elucidation of the rest of Chovos HaLevavos.
This very important volume is dedicated by the Jaffa Family, following
their dedication of the essential Mussar classics Mesillas Yesharim and Shaarei Teshuvah.
