"The Torah with Rashi's Commentary" such as the one found here: www.amazon.com

    I always support everything Jewish, and have suggested or voted for several of these before, so  [Y][Y][Y]  (and more for Rashi and Ramban).

    I'd really like to have this. If you've got The Jewish Book of Days, go read the text for Shavuot at  logosres:jwshbkdyscmpnnl;ref=Page.p_293 and you might understand why.

    I'm guessing that probably means the other Anthologies are worth having as well. And they're JPS so they should be easy to negotiate. [;)]

    I'd support these especially the ones I don't already have in dead tree format.
