Mechanical Torah Portion Project

The climax of our studies in Hebrew: to experience the wonders in Scripture that we will never see in English! This is where we throw out 'good English Grammar' and enjoy translating the Scriptures in the unique way our Creator expresses Himself in His Native Tongue as we work our way through the Torah Parashiyot (Portions).  This project is designed to reveal as much natural Hebrew expression as possible,  without targeting proper English grammar.
