Ekev - Forethoughts And Afterthoughts
Summary: Verse 10:9 reminds us that when the Land of Israel was divided up among the tribes, the tribe of Levy did not receive a share. Our forefathers succeeded in establishing the greatest possible connection with G-D. The sin of the golden calf revealed a qualitative difference within the Jewish people in their connection with G-D. Levy remained connected where the other tribes failed. We can also connect in a more tangible way to our forefathers through the land that they left us and from there ... 0%

Summary: Dvar for Vaetchanan (Deuteronomy 3:23-7:11) Shlomo Ressler The most famous sentence in the Torah is found in this week's Torah portion, Va'etchanan: "Hear O Israel, the Lord our God, the Lord is One." (Deuteronomy 6:4) The last letter (Ayin) of the Hebrew word for "Hear" (Shema) is written large, as is the last letter (Daled)of the Hebrew word for "One" (Echad).

Summary: Bigdei Kehuna by Yehuda Katz - Parshas Va'eschanan Shema Yisrael Torah Network VE'ETCHANAN " Let me now cross and see the good land....................... However, a question can be asked concerning Mosha's request from verse (3:25). Why does Mosha have to say the "good" land, it seems to be superfulous?

Va?eschanan - Forethoughts And Afterthoughts
Summary: The people of that time had some idea of population counts and that the Jewish people were a minority. Actually, Moshe was not the first to compare the count of the Jewish people to that of the stars. Moshe noted that the Jewish people he observed were as numerous as the stars. 0%

Dvar for Devarim (1:1-3:22)
Summary: Dvar for Devarim (1:1-3:22) Shlomo Ressler The best part about books is that you can always look back at parts that are either unclear, or parts that you've missed or liked, and the Torah is no exception. With that in mind, though, why do we need a whole Sefer (Devarim, the book of Deuteronomy) dedicated to review the first 4 books, when all we'd have to do is look back and exam them? Didn't the Jews learn from the destruction of the first Temple merely a few hundred ... 0%

Ask! - Manipulating Nature
Summary: - Manipulating Nature Ohr Somayach From: Raphael Dear Rabbi, Would you please explain the concept of great rabbis being able to manipulate nature? Rabbi Chaim Atar, referred to as the Holy Ohr HaChaim, explains that this is in contradistinction to other examples where a righteous rabbi commands water to make way and the waters do his bidding: In one case, Rabbi Pincahas Ben Yair was on his way to redeem Jewish captives. The essential difference between Moshe at the parting of ... 0%

Devarim - Forethoughts And Afterthoughts (3085)
Summary: Despite their remorse and repentance, despite their transformation at Mount Sinai, despite G-D resting His Divine presence in a beautiful sanctuary that He authorized them to build despite the Golden Calf, they still thought that G-D hated them because of their former lifestyle in Egypt. And there is no shortage of people in this world who tell us that we are hated and rejected by G-D. And yet, despite overwhelmingly impossible odds we are still around, thank G-D. The final redemption will ... 0%

Beloved Children by Rabbi Yisrael Pesach Feinhandler - Parshas Mattos/Massei
Summary: It is written, "And [Moshe] became angry with Elazar and Isamar, the sons of Aharon," and yet the response to Moshe did not come from them, but rather from Aharon, as the verse says, "And Aharon spoke to Moshe." Moshe Hints to Aharon's Death Moshe was embarrassed to say that the time had come for Aharon to leave this world, so he tried to hint it to him. Moshe was embarrassed to tell Aharon outright that he was going to die because Aharon was the older brother to whom Moshe owed respect. 0%

Dvar for Matot-Maasei (Numbers 30:2-36:13)
Summary: Dvar for Matot-Maasei (Numbers 30:2-36:13) Shlomo Ressler One of this week's Parshiot, Parshat Maasei, lists the many places where the Jews in the desert traveled through and camped. As Rabbi Twerski asks, though, at each point the Torah says (33:1-12) that they "traveled from A and camped at B. They traveled from B and camped at C", when it could have saved words and simply said that they camped at A, B, and C? Commentaries help us understand this by explaining that the ... 0%
