Biography

Works

Cohen authors his books for those fluent primarily in English. His works on the laws of Shabbat cover their topics in depth and include extensive footnoting and sourcing in Hebrew on the bottom of each page and are "clear, easy to use and authoritative":

  • The Shabbos Kitchen: A comprehensive halachic guide to the preparation of food and other kitchen activities on Shabbos
  • The Shabbos Home (vol I and II): A comprehensive halachic guide to the preparation of food and other kitchen activities on Shabbos
  • The Sanctity of Shabbos: A comprehensive guide to the laws of Shabbos and Yom Tov as they apply to a non-Jew doing work on behalf of a Jew
  • The Radiance of Shabbos: The complete laws of the Shabbos and Festival candle lighting, Kiddush, Lechem Mishneh, meals, Bircas Hamazon, and Havdalah
  • The Laws of Yom Tov: A comprehensive halachic guide to the laws and practices of the Festivals

  • Laws of the Three Weeks, Tishah B'Av and other Fasts (Part of Laws of Daily Living series)
  • Children in Halacha: Laws relating to young children: Chinuch, Shabbos, Kashrus, Learning and much more
