Projects edit
Oz Vehadar publishes a wide range of Torah books relating to Tanach, Mishnah, Talmud, and works of Rishonim and Acharonim.
Babylonian Talmud edit
From 1988 to 2007, Oz Vehadar worked on publishing a new edition of the Babylonian Talmud with corrections of previous texts and a retypesetting of the commentaries. The cost of the project was over $20 million.[1] The project was supported by Jewish businessman and philanthropist Hershey Friedman and thus named "Mahaduras Friedman" after him.[2]
Oz Vehadar also publishes an edition of the Talmud with vowelization and punctuation.[3][4]
They also published the Mesivta edition of the Talmud, which includes a Hebrew-language translation and commentary, as well as many individual commentaries on the Talmud, including several volumes of Kovetz Mefarshim and the Shita Mekubetzes.[5]
Other publications edit
Other Oz Vehadar publications include Talmud Yerushalmi,[6] Tanakh, Hasidic works,[7] Halakhic works,[8] Passover Haggadas,[9] and other books.
