===Commentary on the Tanakh=== [[Image:Rashi Pentateuch English.jpg|thumb|200px|Title page of an English translation of Rashi's Commentary on the Pentateuch.]] Tens of thousands of men, women and children study "Chumash with Rashi" as they review the Torah portion to be read in synagogue on the upcoming [[Shabbat]]. According to [[halakha]], a man may even fulfill of the requirement of [[Shnayim mikra ve-echad targum]] by reading Rashi's commentary rather than the standard [[Targum Onkelos]].<ref>{{Cite web |title=Shnayim Mikra V'Echad Targum |url=https://halachipedia.com/index.php?title=Shnayim_Mikra_V%27Echad_Targum&utm_source=chatgpt.com |website=Halachapedia.com}}</ref><ref>Teshuvot Vihanhagot 1:261: "vhiskamti" allow using an English translation of rashi if that is the best way for one to study and understand the parsha.</ref> Since its publication, Rashi's commentary on the Torah is standard in almost all Chumashim produced within the [[Orthodox Judaism|Orthodox Jewish]] community.

[[Menachem Mendel Schneerson]], in his [[Likkutei Sichos#"Rashi Sichos"|''Rashi Sichos'']], often addresses several of these commentaries at once. Rashi's influence grew the most in the 15th century; from the 17th century onwards, his commentaries were translated into many other languages. Rashi's commentary on the Pentateuch was known as the first printed Hebrew work. English translations include those of [[Pentateuch with Rashi's Commentary Translated into English|Rosenbaum and Silbermann]] and [[ArtScroll]].
