Hear, O Israel: The LORD our God, the LORD is one.
Welcome to a rare and sacred journey into the heart of the Hebrew Bible. This project offers the full text of the Tanakh—the Torah, the Prophets, and the Writings—narrated word by word in its original Biblical Hebrew, with exceptional precision and care.
The recordings were created over the course of nearly a year, in collaboration with Hebrew language experts and Biblical scholars, to ensure that each word is pronounced in the most authentic and accurate way possible.
At the center of this effort is renowned Israeli narrator Dan Kaner, whose deep, measured voice and unmatched professionalism bring each verse to life with clarity, reverence, and grace. His dedication and sensitivity elevate the sacredness of the text, allowing listeners to connect with the Hebrew Bible at its deepest level.
Whether you are a spiritual seeker, a language enthusiast, or simply curious to experience the Bible in its original form—this archive invites you into a timeless encounter with the words that shaped history.

From the Creator
David Cohen, Project Creator
This project was born from a deep appreciation for the original biblical Hebrew. As the sacred text has been translated and re-translated over millennia, I felt called to share the powerful experience of hearing the scripture in its original language. The ancient Hebrew carries spiritual resonances and meanings that translations simply cannot capture. My hope is that by listening to these narrations, you'll connect with Scripture in a profound and transformative way, regardless of your faith tradition or language background.
Meet the Voice Behind the Sacred Words
Israel's Leading Narrator of Biblical Hebrew
Dan Kaner
Dan Kaner is one of Israel's most distinguished and recognizable voice talents. With his deep, resonant voice and flawless Hebrew diction, he has become the voice behind countless documentary films, national broadcasts, cultural events, and educational projects.
Born and raised in Israel, Dan has dedicated his life to preserving and celebrating the richness of the Hebrew language. His approach to narration reflects not only professional excellence but also a deep reverence for the power of sacred texts.
In this groundbreaking project, Dan brings his extraordinary voice to the Hebrew Bible. Over the course of nearly a year, he recorded every word of the Tanakh—Genesis through Chronicles—in original Biblical Hebrew (Lashon HaKodesh), guided by a team of linguistic experts to ensure maximum accuracy and authenticity.
His narration blends traditional cantillation techniques with modern clarity and production quality, resulting in a unique and deeply moving experience. The result is a definitive audio rendition that captures both the poetic beauty and spiritual depth of the original text—accessible to modern listeners, yet deeply faithful to its ancient roots.
Dan's voice carries not only authority, but also warmth, humility, and a quiet sense of awe. This work is more than a performance—it is a sacred offering, and a gift to anyone seeking a true connection to the foundational texts of the Hebrew tradition.
