Rosenblum, Rabbi Sender on |
What lesson about hishtadlus did the Jews teach us by requesting clothing and money from their Egyptian captors? Why do we have so many commandments connected to Korban Pesach to show us how kingly we are? Wouldn't one be enough to bring the lesson home?
More than once we see the Jews desired to return to Egypt when life in the desert got tough. But how could they possibly have desired to go back to the pain and slavery they had endured? And how did Miriam's command to the women to sing show what a woman's true role is in the world?
How did the bones of Yosef help teach the Jews essential ideas that got them through the desert, and subsequent exiles? And what is the last avodah zarah that exists nowadays? How did Yisro learn about the grateful character of the Jewish nation from Krias Yam Suf and the war with Amalak?
How did Yisro's noticing the Yam Suf splitting and the war with Amalek help shed light on his merit to be the great Moshe's father-in-law? How does the commandment of "Do not murder" hint towards students who don't teach at the level of Torah they can? And what are the three levels of Torah learning?
As Hashem held Har Sinai above our heads to "force" us to accept the Torah, He was also transmitting a key message about how we relate to the nations of the world. What kind of death were the Jews afraid of at Matan Torah due to the great revelation of Hashem?
What are the different interpretations of 'na'aseh v'nishmah' which the Jews said at Sinai, and which earned each Jew two shining crowns? Hear the direct path to learn Torah 'lishmah' plus many other classical vorts contained in this weeks parsha. Tailored for the Shabbos Table.
How does this portion of laws relate to the previous one in which the Torah was given? Why is the reward for charity to be saved from death, and how does this help us understand why lending with interest leads to the grave? How did generosity help exonerate Achav, one of the most vilified characters of our history?
Can one become a great Torah learner without being blessed with an extraordinary mind? Rabbi Rosenblum proves the answer to be yes by showing how the key for Torah accomplishment is mirrored in the Mishkan of this weeks Parshah.
Giving with purity of heart is of extreme value to Hashem - the amount of money isn't nearly as important as the true desire to donate. Even when you are one of many donors, you can still be considered as having given the whole amount. Why? And how does the Aron teach us that those involved in learning Torah can worry a bit less about supporting their families?
Although Moshe's name is not mentioned in this week's parsha, where can we find it hidden? Rabbi Rosenblum delves into the various garments of the Kohen and Kohen Gadol, looking at the deeper meaning woven into them and the various aspects of man they stood for.
