Daughters of Zion
Thank you for your teaching. Could you tell me the significance of the term Daughters of Zion vs. Daughters of Judah?
Thank you!
I love your shirum on Tanya and Chumash Thank you
Hi. Thank you for all that you say and do. I have 2 questions that have been on our families mind.1) Why did Moses send zipporah away. I thought he was married to her and they had 2 children together ? .Was he not obligated to provide for her and train his children... 2) was Yitro a bad fellow.. like a wolf in sheeps clothing.? why did he not stay with Moses? I heard somewhere along the line that he was crafty. Thank for taking the time to read this and offer your insight. sincerely jay
Listen to yesterday’s Aliyah. Yitro was a Very high soul and (the first?) Baal Teshuvah. Moshe sent Zipporah and kids away Because he was going to Egypt to take the Jews out not to Bring more hostages to Pharaoh.
Yitro & Zipporah Sorry, I mean the 1st Aliyah
What is the link between the tem commandments and yitro?
(Mechilta; Rashi)
Now I know that G-d is greater than all gods (18:11)
This tells us that he had full knowledge of every idol in the world, for he had worshipped them all.
(Mechilta; Rashi)
The Torah could not be given to Israel until Jethro, the great and supreme priest of the all pagan world, and confessed his faith in the Holy One, saying, "Now I know that G-d is greater than all the gods."
(Zohar)
