Wednesday, 10 June 2009. 8220;And Hashem spoke to Moshe to say, “Send for yourself men and they will tour the Land of Canaan which I am giving to the Children of Yisroel, one man according to the tribe of his fathers you shall send, each one a great person from them” (Bamidbar 13:1 – 2). 8220;Why did the Torah juxtapose the parsha of the spies to the parsha of Miriam, (who was afflicted with tzaras)? Why does Rashi have to give an explanation of why these two parshios are next to each other? Thus he expl...

Tuesday, 10 February 2009. 8220;And Yisro the priest of Midian, the father-in-law of Moshe heard all that Elokim had done to Moshe and to Yisroel His people, for Hashem had taken Yisroel out of Egypt.” (Shemos, 18:1). 8230;………………. 8220;And Yisro, the father-in-law of Moshe, and his, (Moshe’s) children and his wife came to Moshe, to the desert, where he had encamped at the mountain of Elokim.” (Shemos, 18:5). The splitting of the sea and the battle with Amalek.”. However, these two miracles together demon...

Sunday, 1 February 2009. 8220;And it was, (Vayhi), as Paroh sent the people (out of Egypt)….”. Chazal, (the sages of the Talmud), tell us that “Vay” – “And it…” is a loshon tzar; a linguistic device to indicate trouble and upset. Therefore whenever a passage begins with the (vav/kometz/yud) “Vay.” prefix, something is wrong! There the verse introduces us to the tale of the attempted genocide against the Jewish nation. Wasn’t this a moment of unparalleled joy? But why would Paroh give everyone permission ...

Sunday, 16 August 2009. 8220;Judges and guards give for yourself in all your gates which Hashem your God gives to you to your tribes and judge the people a righteous judgment.” Devorim 16:18. Rashi explains that this verse requires the establishment of botei din, (courts), to judge and a system of enforcement to impose their ruling as required. Upon whom is this requirement placed? Who has the responsibility of appointing the courts? With Moshe now exhorting Yisroel to establish botei din, it would appea...

Thursday, 14 May 2009. Put That In Your. 8220;And Hashem spoke to Moshe at Mont Sinai to say, “Speak to the Bnei Yisroel and say to them, “When you come to the land that I give to them and the land shall rest a Sabbath to Hashem.” Shemos 25:1 – 2. 8220;And the land shall give its fruits and you shall eat to satiation and you will dwell securely upon it. And if you should say, “What will we eat in the seventh year? The Noam Elimelech explains as follows:. Trust which damages the Divine distribution system.

Thursday, 29 October 2009. 8220;And Hashem said to Avrom, go for yourself from your land, from your birthplace and from your father’s house to the land which I will show you.” Bereishis, 12:1. Why is there this three-pronged instruction to Avrom to leave his land, birthplace and father’s house, wouldn’t one suffice? Avrom was at that point in his father’s household, the verse should have said this one place alone. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom). Welcome to On the Parsha! It's a blog - on the parsha!

Tuesday, 24 February 2009. If God Owns the Whole Universe, Why do I have to Give Him My Hard Earned? 8220;And Hashem spoke to Moshe to say: “Speak to the Bnei Yisroel and take for me trumoh, from each man whose heart volunteers him take my trumoh”” Shemos 25:1-2. 8220;And make for me a Mikdosh, and I will dwell amongst you.” Shemos 25:8. Hashem tells Moshe to take building materials from any one who volunteers them. Why without a Mikdosh will Hashem refrain from dwelling amongst us? Therefore the materia...

Tuesday, 17 March 2009. 8220;And Moshe said unto whole of the Congregation of the Children of Israel to say, “This is the thing that Hashem has commanded: Take from yourselves a Trumoh to Hashem, etc.” (Shemos 35:1-5) (Instructions appertaining to the construction of the Mikdosh from this point). Why does the parsha begin with the very unusual term “And Moshe assembled” (Vayakhel Moshe)? This is the only instance of the usage of this term in the Torah! Why did Moshe gather the people together? But, why w...
