Mitchell First is a scholar of Jewish history who, like me, has a fascination with the origin of Hebrew words and phrases.
He has published two books (Roots & Rituals: Insights into Hebrew, Holidays, and History, and Links to Our Legacy: Insights into Hebrew, History, and Liturgy) which have collected his columns on the subject, as well as other columns related to the history of the Jewish calendar, the prayers, and other topics of Jewish history.
I've reviewed the books on the Tradition website, and you can read my review here:
