Succos 5787 – Mishpacha (opens the original)
Read excerpt
“You should sit in succahs for seven days.” (Vayikra 23: 42) When we were first married, I was faced with the task of building our first succah. Providentially, a neighbor offered me a ride to the local hardware store. It was a big help, as we had no car and I had no idea how to get the lumber home without this favor. Still, at the store, it was humiliating when my neighbor pulled out an architectural drawing of his planned succah plus a list of the many types of screws and bolts he’d need. My l

“Hashem reigns, Hashem reigned, Hashem will reign forever.” (Tefillas Rosh Hashanah) The Tzemach Tzedek would call the night of Rosh Hashanah, “Coronation Night.” But why does Hashem need us to coronate Him? If Hashem created us, does He really need us to declare Him King? Hashem gave us our entire existence. Relative to Him, we’re far less significant than an ant in the presence of a human. Can He then be our King? Isn’t that an insult to Him? (Rabbi YY Jacobson, TheYeshiva.net) My friend Bruri

“And Hashem will circumcise your heart and the heart of your children…” (Devarim 30:6) The Baal HaTurim notes that the first letters of these words spell Elul. What’s the connection between the concept of circumcision and our avodah in Elul? (Rav Ozer Alport, Parsha Potpourri) Swimming doesn’t come naturally to me. I took lessons when I was younger, but I never understood why everyone else seemed to swim without thinking, while I had to instruct my brain for each step. Kick, turn head, breathe,

“You are children of Hashem, your G-d….” (Devarim 14:1) Think about this pasuk for a moment. It’s the greatest happiness in the world. Hashem’s love for us surpasses the love a parent has for his children. As it states (Avos 3): How beloved are Yisrael that they are called Hashem’s children. Looking at this mishnah, you have to remember the rule: You only tell someone part of his praise in front of him. So when we’re told that Hashem loves us like His children, we understand that Hashem’s love f

“You shall not covet your neighbor’s wife; you shall not covet your neighbor’s house, nor his field, nor his manservant, nor his maidservant, nor his ox, nor his donkey, and anything that belongs to your neighbor.” (Devarim 5:18) This is the tenth and final of the Aseres Hadibros. The structure of this verse seems strange. In the beginning, it specifies seven things we shouldn’t covet. But then, at the conclusion of the verse, it states: “And anything that belongs to your neighbor.” Why the unne
