The Birth of Tiptoe

Nearly three decades ago on a restless night, I turned, like people have done for generations, to the Torah for hope and comfort. Wow! what a difference the original text made! The words were so powerful and poetic.

But it was confusing at times with its lineages, unfamiliar names, places and dates.  

So I began to adapt the Torah with the goal of bringing out the best of the original text in a clear and meaningful way. It has evolved into several editions.

Tiptoe Through Torah For Families & Schools - Make A Torah Activity.  Using the child-friendly, intergenerational approach, families and schools can study and illustrate their own Torah. Get Started

Tiptoe Through Torah Biblical Booklettes for the Book of Genesis Separate portions that can be read as a short booklette rather than all the chapters as contained in the one Book of Genesis.

Tiptoe Through Genesis Book
A passage-based approach to the first book of Torah radiates with relevancy and beauty. Available for free on Kindle Unlimited and for purchase.
 
Adult Torah Portion Weekly Summaries offered at www.MyJewishLearning.com.  These are longer and more detailed than the portions available on this site and were my very first portions that I wrote.


May Tiptoe be a source of blessing in your life.
