THE TORAH SAYS towards the end of last week’s parsha that Moshe told the Jewish people “all the words of God and all the judgments,” (Shemos 24:3). The Jewish people answered back in unison, “All that God has said we will do!”
THE GEMORA SAYS, “From where is it derived that three who sit in judgment, the Divine Presence is with them?
THIS WEEK’S PARSHA is climactic for an obvious reason, and a less obvious reason. The giving of the Torah at Mt. Sinai is one of the most important events of all of history, greatly altering the direction of mankind.
TU BESHEVAT IS upon us once again, b”H, with a very different feel than just one year ago. There had been no October 7 attack yet last year at this time, and no hostages to worry about every day.
