A revolutionary re-visioning of the Hebrew Bible that breaks the locks of a sealed canon—regendering biblical theology, narrative, and law.

Toratah, which means “Her Torah” in Hebrew, reimagines the Hebrew Bible by reversing the gender of all its figures—transforming patriarchs into matriarchs, matriarchs into patriarchs, and reshaping millennia-old narratives. Jehovah becomes Tehovah, Cain becomes Kina, and Noah becomes Nokha. By defamiliarizing these ancient stories, Toratah opens up new ways of understanding hierarchy, gender, and power, and presents a new horizon for spiritual imagination.

Toratah is a vital contribution to biblical literature, reclaiming sacred ground long denied to women. By regendering the sacred text—and even the Divine itself—Toratah places women at the center to create a more expansive canon: one  that introduces new models for both women and men, granting them forms of agency previously unavailable in biblical scripture. The project has already inspired a vibrant community online, leading to new curricula, rituals, and artworks that explore the dynamic interplay between Toratah and Torato (“His Torah,” or what’s known as the traditional Hebrew Bible). The first of a series, this print edition of Toratah includes the first six chapters of Genesis, featuring the Hebrew, its English translation, rich commentary and midrash, and pedagogic prompts designed to engage readers across generations.

The careful design of this volume creates a dialogue between the conventional layout of Hebrew sacred texts and contemporary aesthetics, presenting a book that is simultaneously old and new, traditional and innovative.
