Torah from Our Sages: Pirke Avot-Translation and Explanation

Plot

Jacob Neusner subtitles his book "Translation and Explanation". He offers the text in Hebrew, an English translation and a brief commentary on the meaning of the text. Sometimes he adds short reflections on what it means to be Jewish. The book is very accessible and the content is inspirational. It is a good introduction for someone, like me, who knows almost nothing about the Oral Torah. I think it would be good for high school students as well.
