I want to be able to learn while I am doing the dishes, and as much as the shiurim available online are great, I would like to find online shiurim which are just recordings of someone reading sefarim, preferably without translating them. I have some specific ones in mind, but if there is a database with a selection of any significant size, that would be the best.

Does anyone know where I can find online (or, failing that, orderable) audio-book sefarim?

A point of clarification: I would prefer a database with multiple works, but even references to audio of single works would be appreciated.

    I don't know what this is, but it turned up in a Google search and looks relevant – MTL Dec 29 '14 at 03:57

    Basically, sefarim-on-tape. Perhaps try organizations that have resources for the blind. – Double AA Dec 29 '14 at 05:19
  • If you want to hear Chumash, you can find plenty of recordings of leining around the internet -- you could even make your own! – MTL Dec 30 '14 at 19:14
  • I'm pretty sure there's an Israeli resource out there with all of Tanach read aloud. – Isaac Moses Dec 30 '14 at 19:26
  • @Shokhet, among other things, it's the source for the lyrics of the popular song "Bilvavi". – Isaac Moses Dec 30 '14 at 19:28
  • @IsaacMoses I don't understand; are you referring to my first comment, or my second? ( I'm leaning toward first ) – MTL Dec 30 '14 at 22:08
  • @Shokhet, sorry; the first one. The lyrics come from Sefer Hachareidim. – Isaac Moses Dec 30 '14 at 22:10
  • @IsaacMoses My comment was a little unclear; I know what the sefer is (though I didn't know that "Bilvavi" came from there); I was saying that the posted link looks like someone reading a sefer, but I'm not sure -- it might actually be a series of shiurim on the sefer. I haven't listened to any of those audios, but since they're set up like to ToC of a sefer, that it looks like it might be what YeZ is looking for. – MTL Dec 30 '14 at 22:17

This actually does exist on Kol Halashon! The man who recorded this, Rav Yehoshua Leibowitz, has also recorded quite a few other areas of text that may be of interest:

  • Shulchan Aruch
  • Tanach
  • Rambam
  • Select Mussar Seforim
  • Ein Yaakov/Some Yerushalmi
  • Prayers/other odds and ends
