Bishop Mark Strange, Primus of the Scottish Episcopal Church ‘Unto us a child is born.’ Those are the words I will proclaim on Christmas morning. But this year the cathedral will be very quiet, with only fifty worshippers allowed to attend. There will be no singing, no hugging, and no handshakes, yet the message will be the same; the joy will be the same. People talk about the pandemic ‘stealing’ Christmas or that the Government’s rules have ‘cancelled Christmas’. My response is that these verdicts are nonsense. The birthday of Jesus cannot simply be cancelled any more than my own birthday can be cancelled (however much I may wish it could). What will be different this year are the festivities of our Christmas holiday.

It is not possible to overestimate the work of Koren publishers during the last years: The new Koren siddur, the Steinsaltz Talmud, the Steinsaltz Ḥumash and many other (influential) books and publications. Not to mention the accuracy of the Koren Tanakh.
