A Weekly Byte...From Isralight (Mishpatim 5767)
Summary: I think a lot of people don't have good feelings about a Torah life because they don't understand the meaning of it. The Jewish people, presented with the opportunity to receive the Torah from G-d, rather than question its contents, or explore its values, simply respond that they are willing to accept it, sight unseen. ?

HaMaayan / The Torah Spring - Parashat Behar - Bechukotai
Summary: Rashi writes: "Observe My commandments" clearly refers to keeping the Torah's laws.
