Posted on July 6, 2022 Posted in Featured, Rabbis Corner, Torah Thoughts

From Generation to Generation B”H Rabbi Rami Pavolotzky This week we read parashat Korach. It is interesting to notice that in this parasha Miriam and Aaron die. In addition, Moses is sentenced to die before entering the Land of Israel. As the Chumash Etz Hayim points out, this is certainly an indication that a transition

Counting People as an Expression of Love and Appreciation B”H Rabbi Daniela Szuster This week we are starting the fourth book of the Torah, the book of B’midvar, which means “in the Wilderness” because it describes the wandering of the people of Israel in the desert.

Torah Thoughts on Parashat Bechukotai 5782 By Rabbi Rami Pavolotzky This week we read parashat Bechukotai, the last section of the Book of Leviticus.
