Light at the Table gathers fifty four weekly parsha essays and the major holidays into short readings for real Shabbat tables. Each piece is warm and rooted, written in plain English with light Hebrew, so families, students, and seekers can read aloud and join the conversation.

Every essay follows a clear arc: one pasuk in translation, a brief Hebrew phrase, a teaching from Chazal, a classic mefaresh, a careful note from the Zohar, and one practical Shabbat takeaway. The tone is Orthodox and accessible, mystical yet responsible. Read one before Kiddush, share another with dessert, and carry a single step into the week. From Bereishit to V'Zot HaBerachah, from Rosh Chodesh to fast days, these pages invite the glow of candles to meet the light of Torah, week after week.

Menachem Clausen is a Jerusalem-based writer and editor whose work turns classic sources toward lived practice. He gives steady attention to mesorah and to the limits of speculation, and uses contemporary science only as a clarifying analogy. His writing ranges from Jewish thought to public ethics. When not writing, he studies with neighbors and helps communities align words with deeds.
