The first schach - born of transgression (opens the original)
Read excerpt
לרפואת נריה דב בן חנה לייטנר בתוך כל שאר חולי ישראל. The Mishna (Suk’ 1:4) lays down: ’This is the principle: Anything that is susceptible to ritual impurity, or its growth is not from the ground, one may not roof his sukka with it. And anything that is not susceptible to ritual impurity and its growth from the ground’ and is not attached to the ground, ‘one may roof’ his sukka with it. Let us preface our exposition,by bringing an intriguing Midrash: ’Breishit: The Torah ‘boasts’ that it was the
Why is Rosh Hashana before - and not after - Yom Kippur? (opens the original)
Read excerpt
לעילוי נשמתה של חמותי היקרה, גולדה בת יחיאל מיכל ז"ל The Mussar master, Rav Israel Salanter asks the following intriguing question: Why is Yom Kippur not before Rosh Hashanah? Should we not first receive forgiveness for our sins, and then be standing before Hashem, to be judged, on Rosh Hashanah?’.

Read excerpt
In Parashat Va’Eira, Hashem tells Moshe to give Bnei Israel the glad tidings of their coming redemption from their enslavement in Egypt. The words are known as the four languages of redemption:(6:6) ’I have remembered My covenant. Therefore say to the Children of Israel:’I am Hashem, and I shall take you out from under the burdens of Egypt; i shall rescue you from their service; I shall redeemyou with an outstretched arm and with great judgments. I shall take you to me for a people and I shall b
The yetse hara conundrum (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Guided by Rashi’s literal commentary, let us bring the opening psukim of our Parasha:(21: 10-13);’if you go out to war’ - an optional war, as in an obligatory war, no captives are to be taken alive - ‘and you see a beautiful woman amongst the captives, and you desire her for yourself as a wife.’ - the Torah here makes a concession to the yetser hara, the evil inclination - in this case, lust - for if Hashem did not allow him to take her for a wife, he would have relations with her anyway in a pr
