Default What is the Chumash?

Is this kind of thing useful for studying the OT?

It would be useful in learning about Jewish insights into the Torah and Midrash. It is the printed version of the Torah, not in scroll format.

So you haven't studied it? What is its value versus a scholarly commentary? Getting the Jewish version (which may be a bit skewed)?
