Parashat Yitro recounts one of the most pivotal events, if not the most pivotal event, in Jewish history—the giving of the Torah at Har Sinai. The Midrash famously teaches that before giving the Torah to Beneh Yisrael, Hashem first offered it to the other nations. He approached the descendants of Esav, who inquired about its contents. When Hashem told them that the Torah includes the command, "Lo Tirsah"—"You shall not murder," they declined, as violence was ingrained in their way of life. Next, Hashem turned to Yishmael's descendants. Upon hearing that the Torah forbids theft—"Lo Tignob"—they, too, rejected it, unable to commit to such a moral standard, refraining from theft. Hashem then went to Amon and Moav. When they asked what the Torah commanded, Hashem told them, "Lo Tinaf"—"You shall not commit adultery." They, too, refused, unwilling to accept such a limitation, as they were accustomed to engaging freely in illicit relationships. Hashem then offered the Torah to Beneh Yisrael, who unlike the other nations, accepted the Torah unconditionally, without asking any questions. The Midrash's account requires explanation. The prohibitions of murder, theft, and adultery are not unique to the Torah. They are already included in the Sheva Misvot Beneh Noach – the seven "Noachide Laws," universal commandments given to all of humanity. Whether or not Esav, Yishmael, Amon, and Moav accepted the Torah, they were still bound by these prohibitions. If so, why does it matter that they rejected the Torah? The answer lies in the profound difference between observing these basic moral prohibitions and fully embracing the Torah's rigorous ethical and spiritual expectations. The command of "Lo Tirsah" does not only prohibit taking a life. It also forbids embarrassing someone in public, which is akin to murder. It means we must not "kill" our time by engaging in wasteful, vain activities. It even extends to preserving objects of value and not destroying them unnecessarily, because destruction is, in a sense, a form of "killing." Similarly, "Lo Tignob" is not just about theft of money or possessions. Wasting another person's time is a form of theft. Depriving someone of sleep by making noise at night is also stealing. Even redistributing wealth unjustly—such as in the story of Robin Hood, or in the style of communism—constitutes a violation of this prohibition in Torah law. Finally, "Lo Tinaf" likewise extends beyond the specific prohibition against forbidden intimate relationships. The Torah demands a higher level of modesty (Seniut), governing the way we dress, the way we speak, and even what we choose to see or expose ourselves to. This is what distinguished Beneh Yisrael from the other nations. Even if the other nations were willing to abide by basic moral codes, they would never commit to the all-encompassing ethical and spiritual framework that the Torah demands. Beneh Yisrael, however, accepted these lofty expectations without hesitation, embracing not just the specific prohibitions, but the especially high standards of sanctity and self-discipline that Torah life requires. As the Jewish people, we are held to a higher standard. Accepting the Torah means committing ourselves to a life of holiness and moral refinement. This is both a privilege and a responsibility. As Hashem's beloved nation, we must always remember that our actions reflect the divine mission entrusted to us. Whether in business, in speech, in dress, or in our treatment of others, we must uphold the elevated standards of Am Yisrael – and feel honored and privileged to conduct ourselves in a special manner befitting Hashem's beloved people.

En Hébreu, les Juifs sont appelés Yéhoudim. Et la Torah est particulièrement sévère envers les peuples de 'Amon et Moav. Pourquoi ? En quoi tout cela montre l'importance de la reconnaissance ? Réponse à travers des propos du Ramban.

Ki Tavo | Why Did Bnei Yisrael Need a Second Tokhacha? by Rav Yitzchak Etshalom Why is the imprecation (תוכחה) in our Parasha so much more frightening and graphic than the earlier one in Vayikra 26 Parashat Ki Tavo is perhaps most well-known for the lengthy and painful imprecation which Moshe integrates into the covenant which he initiates with Bnei Yisrael in the Plains of Moav - a decidedly second and "other" covenant to the original one entered into at Sinai. We explore the need for a second covenant and the significantly more frightening imagery in the second תוכחה and propose why it may have been needed for this second generation, born free in the desert. לע"נ אחי יונתן הלל בן הרב אשר אהרן ומרים Source sheet >>

e read in Parashat Matot of the war that G-d commanded Beneh Yisrael to wage against the nation of Midyan to avenge the tragedy of Ba'al Pe'or. Midyan, together Moav, conspired to lure Beneh Yisrael to sins of immorality and idol-worship. The scheme, unfortunately, succeeded, and G-d punished Beneh Yisrael by sending a plague that killed 24,000 members of the nation. Hashem instructed Beneh Yisrael to wage war against Midyan in order to take revenge. The Torah relates that this battle was led by Pinhas, the son of the Kohen Gadol, Elazar (31:6). Rashi gives two reasons for why specifically Pinhas was chosen to lead the war. First, he was the one who saved Beneh Yisrael from annihilation during the calamity of Ba'al Pe'or, by killing a man and woman who committed a public sinful act. Once Pinhas avenged G-d's honor, G-d ended the plague. Rashi writes that since Pinhas began the Misva by killing these two violators, he was chosen to complete the Misva by leading the war against Midyan. But then Rashi adds a second explanation. He writes that Pinhas led the war against Midyan to avenge that nation's role in the sale of his ancestor, Yosef, as a slave. Pinhas' mother was a descendant of Yosef, and merchants from Midyan were the ones who, after purchasing Yosef from his brothers, brought him to Egypt and sold him to Potifar, an Egyptian nobleman. It was thus appropriate for Yosef's descendant, Pinhas, to lead Beneh Yisrael's war against the people of Midyan. Rashi's comments seem puzzling. Why should Midyan be blamed for Mechirat Yosef (the sale of Yosef as a slave)? It was Yosef's brothers who turned on him; the Midyanim simply accepted the offer and paid for Yosef, after which they sold him for a profit. Why did their role in Mechirat Yosef need to be avenged? Yosef excelled particularly in the area of Kedusha, maintaining his sanctity and purity even in the face of overwhelming temptation. As a teenager, he was lured to sin by Potifar's wife, and he resisted. The Midyanim, it appeared, had sinister intentions when they brought Yosef to Egypt, a society which at that time was steeped in decadence and immorality. They wanted to ruin Yosef by compromising his Kedusha, by putting him in a place where – they incorrectly assumed – he would be unable to withstand temptation and would be lured to sin. This is precisely what Midyan did several generations later, at Ba'al Pe'or. They tried destroying Beneh Yisrael by luring them to immorality, which would undermine their spirituality. Appropriately, then, Pinhas – a descendant of Yosef – led the war against Midyan, because this war avenged Midyan's devious scheme both at Ba'al Pe'or and with Mechirat Yosef. Our nation's struggle against Midyan continues to this very day, with greater intensity than ever. Contemporary society champions values that directly oppose the Torah's values of Kedusha and purity, and we are exposed at all times to lures that threaten to divest us of our sanctity. Hashem commanded Beneh Yisrael to wage war against Midyan – because we need to proactively reject and oppose the efforts made to undermine our Kedusha. We must continue waging this vitally important battle that began with Yosef and then proceeded with Pinhas, and work to oppose the sinful influences and lures that we face on a daily basis.

Parashat Pinhas begins with Hashem's announcement of the rewards that He would be giving to Pinhas, the grandson of Aharon. The background to the story is the sin of Ba'al Pe'or , when Beneh Yisrael became involved with the women of the nation of Moav, and also worshipped the god of Moav. Hashem punished the people by bringing a plague which killed 24,000 people. The plague ended only when Pinhas boldly arose and killed two people – a Jewish man and a gentile woman – who were committing a public sinful act. By defending Hashem's honor in this way, Pinhas brought an end to the devastating plague. Hashem then announced that Pinhas would receive two rewards. First, he would receive בריתי שלום – “My covenant of peace.” He was blessed with peace and serenity. In addition, he was rewarded with ברית כהונת עולם – the status of kohen . Due to a technicality, Pinhas had not previously been a kohen , despite being a grandson of Aharon. In reward for his heroic act during the calamity of Ba'al Pe'or , he and his descendants were declared kohanim . It seems that Pinhas received two rewards because of two great things which he accomplished. The Midrash tells that after he killed the two violators, he turned to Hashem and asked, “Because of these two people You are going to kill 24,000 members of Beneh Yisrael ?!” This shows that Pinhas acted as he did not out of anger and rage, but to the contrary, out of genuine love and concern for Am Yisrael . He truly believed, with every fiber of his being, that Beneh Yisrael were much better than this, that this debacle didn't at all define who they were. There were these two sinners who needed to be eliminated, but the rest of the nation were all good and deserved to be saved. This is how Pinhas felt toward Beneh Yisrael. Pinhas thus received two rewards: 1) He was rewarded with the status of kohen for his bold, courageous act to kill the two sinners. 2) He was rewarded with peace for his sincere love and concern for the people. Pinhas wasn't an angry, mean zealot who set out to violently oppose those who acted wrongly. Rather, he deeply cared for Beneh Yisrael even in their moment of disgrace. He realized that there were two “bad apples” whom he needed to confront for the sake of saving the rest of the nation. This was an act of love, not an act of rage. Tens of thousands of people sinned – but he loved them, and acted against only the two public violators. Rav Binyamin Finkel of the Mir Yeshiva in Jerusalem is an extraordinary figure, commonly known as “Rav Binyamin Ha'tzadik.” Once, when he visited our community, he came to shul on what turned out to be an exceptionally busy Shabbat morning. A lengthy, double- parashah was read, and a fundraiser was being held. There were lots of extra aliyot , and the shul was extremely noisy, with lots of talking. Before the time came for him to speak, I had no choice but to approach him and explain that the people in the shul are very strict about time, and so he had only three minutes, and no more, to speak. The words he spoke in those three minutes left me astonished. He spoke about how wonderful the shul is, how wonderful the congregation is, how wonderful the tefilah was. This man is the mashgiah (spiritual supervisor) of the Mir Yeshiva, where hardly anybody speaks a single word during the tefilah , ever. And here he was, in a commotion-filled shul with lots of noise, talking about how wonderful the people were. Rav Binyamin understood that the way to people's hearts is through positivity, not through negativity and criticism. Angrily berating people for doing things wrong is not likely to change them. It will just make them not want to listen to what we have to say ever again. If we want to elicit change, we need to treat people and speak to them with respect even if they do things to which we strongly object. In the early years of our community, there were many members who would drive to work after davening on Shabbat morning. The Rabbis of the time did not throw them out of shul. They did just the opposite – they warmly welcomed them, understanding that their ongoing connection to the shul, to tefilah , and to the Rabbi is what will gradually influence them to raise their standards of religious observance. Pinhas is not a model of angry zealotry, of harshly protesting against sin. He is a model of love and positivity, of caring for fellow Jews especially in their lowest moments. This is the way our community will, please G-d, continue to grow and flourish – through positivity, through love, through building connections between the different types of people, so that we can work together to move our community forward.

Parshas Balak: Choices and Blessings The Parsha Perspective is in honor of Eretz Yisroel.  May G-d protect our brave soldiers.  May G-d return all the hostages in Gaza immediately.  This week's Parsha Perspective is in memory of my grandfather, Rav Yeudah Ben Aaron, Shlomo Ben Edward, Edward Ben Efraim, and Yirachmiel Daniel Ben Gedalia. May their souls be uplifted and their memories a blessing.  This week's Parsha Perspective is in the merit of the holy Ohr Hachaim, Rav Chaim Ibn Attar, a commentay I use frequently. His Yahrzeit, the anniversary of his passing, is on the 15th of Tammuz, this upcoming Sunday.   The release date of this episode is the 12th of Tammuz, which marks the birthday and release from prison of the previous Rebbe, Rav Yosef Yitzchak Schneersohn, the sixth Chabad Rebbe. Born in 1880, the Rebbe, known as the Rayyatz, led with courage and dedication, keeping Judaism alive during dark times. In 1940, he came to America and founded a Yeshiva, declaring, "Amerike iz nit andersh - America is no different." His legacy lives on through his passion, care for every Jew, and dedication to G-d, magnified by his son-in-law, our Rebbe. Click here to listen, watch and connect! Parshaperspective.com  Our Parsha tells us the story of Balak and Balaam. Balak, the king of Moav, was worried about his upcoming battle with the Jewish people.  Moshe and the Jewish nation had just won their wars with the powerful countries of Emor and Bashon.  So Balak recruited Balaam, the famous non-Jewish prophet, to curse the Jewish people and hopefully defeat the Jewish nation in battle. We find out what made Balak afraid. We learn the significance of each choice we make. 

What is a fearless leader? Is it somebody that's not afraid? Balak was the leader of Moav. He saw the Jewish people wipe out the two kings that were paid to protect him. His fear turned into panic, which he displayed to everybody, causing them to ultimately get wiped out. The leader of the Jewish people, Moshe Rabeinu, was also afraid that the king Og would be protected in the merit of Avraham Avenu. However, he displayed confidence and positivity, and ultimately they won the war. לקו״ש לג-א

The Hovot Ha'levavot writes that when a person goes out to work in the morning, he should have kavanah (the intention) that he is now performing a mitzvah , fulfilling Hashem's command that he work to earn a livelihood. A person shouldn't go to work begrudgingly, wishing he could just stay home and do nothing. Rather, he should think to himself that he performs a mitzvah , since, after all, it is Hashem's will that a person work to support himself and his family. In presenting this idea, the Hovot Ha'levavot brings a pasuk from the story of creation. After Hashem created Adam and Havah, the first human beings, he placed them in Gan Eden לעבדה ולשמרה – to work in the garden, and to guard it (Bereshit 2:15). This pasuk , the Hovot Ha'levavot writes, is the source of the notion that we fulfill Hashem's will by working for a livelihood. It is noteworthy that the Hovot Ha'levavot chose to bring this pasuk , which refers to Adam and Havah's life in Gan Eden before the sin. As we know, Adam and Havah were soon banished from Gan Eden because they partook of the forbidden fruit, and Hashem decreed that Adam would have to work very hard to earn a livelihood: בזעת אפיך תאכל לחם – “By the sweat of your brow shall you eat bread” (Bereshit 3:19). Hashem cursed the land, such that it would not produce food without lots of hard work. Already before the sin, Adam and Havah needed to work, but after the sin, the work became much more grueling. We would certainly assume that this second pasuk is far more relevant to our situation, which the Hovot Ha'levavot addresses. As we all now, we need to work very hard to support ourselves and our families, and this is because of the curse which Hashem proclaimed after Adam and Havah's sin. Why, then, did the Hovot Ha'levavot bring the first pasuk , which describes work before Adam and Havah's sin, as the source of the “ mitzvah ” to work for a living? Perhaps we can find the answer in our parashah , Parashat Balak. Balak, the king of Moav, sent a delegation to Bilam, asking him to come and place a curse on Beneh Yisrael . Hashem appeared to Bilam and said, לא תאור את העם כי ברוך הוא – “Do not curse the nation, because they are blessed” (22:12). Rashi explains that Hashem first told Bilam, לא תאור את העם – not to curse Beneh Yisrael . Bilam then asked if he should bless them, instead. Hashem replied, כי ברוך הוא – the people were already blessed, and they did not require Bilam's blessing. What does this mean? Why did Hashem not want Bilam to bless the people? The answer, sadly, is found all around us, and perhaps even within ourselves. So many people are waiting to be blessed, not realizing that they are already blessed. So many people complain and feel unhappy, seeing themselves as deprived, and their lives as “cursed,” when in truth, they are blessed. They are unhappy and discontented, because they don't see that they already have so much blessing. Hashem was telling Bilam that Benei Yisrael are already blessed, and they do not need him to bless them. And this is the perspective we should have, as well. Of course, it is perfectly acceptable to want things we don't have, and to pray for these things. However, we must always remember כי ברוך הוא – that we are already blessed, that we already have so many beautiful blessings, that we are so fortunate, that Hashem has bestowed upon us so many wonderful gifts. We don't need to wait for ברכה to feel blessed, because ברוך הוא – we already have a great deal of ברכה in our lives. This might explain why the Hovot Ha'levavot chose the pasuk describing Adam and Havah before their banishment from Gan Eden . He is indicating to us that we are to see our lives as blessed, not cursed. Even if we need to work long hours at a job we do not love, we are to feel blessed, as if we are in Gan Eden , because we are doing what Hashem wants us to do. We shouldn't see our jobs as a curse, but rather as a blessing. We should go to work and do all the things we need to do – even the hard things! – with a feeling of כי ברוך הוא , that we are blessed, that we have the good fortune of living our lives in the service of Hashem and under His constant, loving care.

In the first of the "Prophecies Against the Nations" Ezekiel addresses Amon, Moav, Edom and the Philistines and predicts their downfall. What do these prophecies add to the tapestry of messages that Ezekiel offers?

התוכן ידוע מאמר הגמ' "גדולה לגימה שמקרבת", כפי שלמדים מהעדר הלגימה "שהרחיקה שתי משפחות מישראל (עמון ומואב), שנאמר על דבר אשר לא קדמו אתכם בלחם ובמים" (ולכן לא יבואו בקהל). והנה ה"פירוד" בין עמון ומואב התחיל עוד בזמנו של אברהם אבינו, כמ"ש בפ' לך לך [בשלישי דפ' לך לך] ע"ד הפירוד שבין אברהם ללוט "ויסע לוט גו' ויפרדו איש מעל אחיו", שמזה נעשה אח"כ הפירוד שבין בנ"י לעמון ומואב (בניו של לוט). ועוד זאת, מזה שדוקא "אחרי הפרד לוט מעמו" התגלה השכינה לאברהם בהיותו נשמה בגוף, מובן, שמדובר ב"פירוד" כזה שיש לו תפיסת מקום גם בדרגא כזו שממנה באה הקישור דמעלה ומטה (שהוא נעלה יותר מ"מעלה" ו"מטה" כשלעצמם). הנה גם בנוגע לפירוד שכזה אמחז"ל ש"גדולה לגימה שמקרבת"! וזהו הדיוק "גדולה לגימה שמקרבת", כי הכח לפעול קירוב גם בנפרדים שהפירוד שלהם נוגע בדרגא נעלית שכזו – נמשך מלמע' מסדר השתלשלות – "גדולה". ואם אפי' כוחה של לגימה של אינו יהודי (שבעצם הם נפרדים) הוא גדול כ"כ, עאכו"כ לגימה של בנ"י, שבעצמיותם מקורבים הם, שגדול כוחה של לגימה לפעול שיומשך ויתגלה ענין זה. וכ"ז נפעל ע"י "לגימה" כפשוטה.משיחת אור לה' מרחשון ה'תשכ"א – התוועדות "צאתכם לשלום" לאורחים שי' ל"הנחה פרטית" או התרגום ללה"ק של השיחה: https://thedailysicha.com/?date=24-10-2023 Synopsis The Gemara states, “offering food is great, because it brings near…”, as we see from the fact that Amon and Moav's failure to provide food for the Jewish people resulted in them being distanced from the Jewish people. This divide already began in the time of Avraham Avinu, as it says in [shelishi of] Parashas Lech Lecha, “Lot traveled…and they parted from one another,” which eventually resulted in the divide between the Jewish people and Lot's descendants Amon and Moav. The fact that it was specifically “after Lot parted from him” that the Divine Presence was revealed to Avraham (a soul in a body), indicates that this is the sort of divide that has a valid place, and that it even has an effect on heaven and earth being connected (a level even higher than heaven and earth themselves). And even regarding this kind separation our Sages said that “offering food is a great thing”! It is called “great” because this ability to bridge even a divide at such a lofty level comes from a place that transcends seder hishtalshelus. And if “food” offered by a non-Jew (who are inherently separate) can have such a great effect, we can understand that “food” shared among Jews, who are inherently connected certainly has a lofty effect, causing those lofty levels to be revealed. And all this happens through “food” in the simple sense.Excerpt from sicha of 5 Cheshvan 5721 – at the farbrengen bidding farewell to Tishrei guests For a transcript in English of the Sicha: https://thedailysicha.com/?date=24-10-2023

Today we discuss the special features of the prophecy against Moav 1. A sin - pride and arrogance 2. The poetry of the chapter 3. The plethora of names that characterize this prophecy 4. The intriguing citing of lines from Isaiah and Sefer Bamidbar that appear in the prophecy.

Why we don't accept converts from Amon and Moav

Why don't we allow converts from Amon and Moav to ever marry into our nation while we do allow third generation converts from Mitzrayim and Edom to marry in? The Torah gives one answer; Rashi (seemingly) gives an entirely different answer. This episode seeks to resolve Rashi's apparent contradiction with the pesukim.

conclusion of episode of meraglim, ban on taking areas around EY, that generation died...

In this episode we discuss what is the connection between these two Parshiyos, and we explain the motivation of Moav to attack and hate Klal Yisrael, and why the Torah judges them so harshly.

Ch.15 and 16 articulate a lament for the destruction and demise of Moav, their cities ravaged and their landscape devastated. Is this a sympathetic reflection or a vindictive one?

3 sections- wonderful existence of the future days and thanks to Hashem, destruction of Moav (along with Gog u'Magog), erasure of death (2 opinons)

It is customary to read Megillat Rut on Shabuot, and several different reasons have been given for this custom. The Mordechi (Rav Mordechai Ben Hillel, Germany, 1250-1298), in Masechet Megilla (chapter 1), as cited by the Rama (Rav Moshe Isserles of Cracow, 1525-1572) in Darkeh Moshe (494), explains that the story of Rut took place during the harvest season, around the time of Shabuot, and it is therefore appropriate to read this story on this holiday. Others explain that at the time of Matan Torah, the Jewish People underwent a process of "conversion," for, like converts, they had been obligated only in the Seven Noachide Laws, and then committed themselves to the Torah's 613 commands. (Interestingly, the Hebrew word "Gerut" has the numerical value of 620, corresponding to the 613 Biblical commands plus the seven Misvot instituted by the Sages.) Therefore, on the day we celebrate Matan Torah, we read the story of Rut, which tells of Rut's conversion and acceptance of the Misvot.Thirdly, we read Megilat Rut as a reminder that accepting the Torah includes not only our obligations toward G-d, but also our obligations to other people. The story of Rut is all about Hesed: Rut accompanied her mother-in-law, Naomi, and left her homeland to be at her side; Boaz cared for Rut when she arrived in Bet-Lehem, and then married her; Rut performed kindness for her deceased husband by allowing his soul to be perpetuated through the process of Yibum. We read this story to remind ourselves that kindness and sensitivity to other people is part and parcel of our acceptance of the Torah.Additionally, Megillat Rut is a story of remarkable "Mesirut Nefesh" – self-sacrifice. Rut was the daughter of the king of Moav, yet she was prepared to leave her life of royalty and all the amenities and luxuries it offers in order to become a Jew. This story reminds us that we need to sacrifice in order to succeed in Torah and Misvot. We cannot expect to excel in our devotion to Torah while enjoying all the comforts and luxuries that life offers. "Mesirut Nefesh" is an indispensable prerequisite for a successful Torah life.Finally, the story of Megillat Rut concludes with Rut's marriage to Boaz and the birth of their son, who ultimately became the grandfather of King David, who was born and passed away on Shabuot. It is thus appropriate to read this story on Shabuot, when we remember and reflect upon David Ha'melech.

In this shiur, delivered in Michlala, Rav Burg explains (based on the Torah of the Nachlas Yosef) the first several Pesukim of Megillas Rus. Understanding the inner story of how Naomi came to be in Moav allows us to understand the heroism of her return to return to Eretz Yisrael. Indeed from her return comes Dovid HaMelech and ultimately Melech HaMashiach.

Chain of events- Ashur will decimate the wicked Moav (after exiling 10 tribes-Yisrael) and then the righteous king Chizkiya (of Yehuda) will wipe out Ashur.

Israel, Judah and Edom join forces to attack Moav. We shall speak about a critical historic artifact - the Mesha Stele - that gives us important context for this military campaign.

Since at least Adam Smith, the common wisdom has been that the transition from hunter-gathering to farming allowed the creation of the State. Farming, so went the theory, led to agricultural surplus, and that surplus is the prerequisite for taxation and a State. But economist Omer Moav of Reichman University argues that it wasn't farming but the farming of a particular kind of crop (but not others) that led to hierarchy and the State. Moav explains to EconTalk host Russ Roberts storability is the key dimension that allows for taxation and a State. The conversation includes a discussion of why it's important to understand the past and the challenges of confirming or refuting theories about history.

David fights on every front: Philistines, Moav, Aram, Edom, Amalek, Amon, and succeeds in growing the kingdom to a veritable empire. The chapter ends with David's growing national administration. Our discussion will focus upon the military force that David is using and its justification.
