Emor: The Priesthood; The Festivals
Leviticus 21:1–24:23
The eighth section of the Book of Leviticus begins as G d directs Moses to tell (Emor, in Hebrew) the elder priests to educate the younger priests regarding the laws of the priesthood. G‑d then teaches Moses these laws, after which He teaches him the laws regarding the cycle of festivals in the Jewish year.

Daily Quote
Rabbi Leib, the "Grandfather of Shpoli," related that when he was a child of three he saw the Baal Shem Tov. "He placed his holy hand on my heart and ever since I have felt warm." A gesture of a tzaddik (righteous person), certainly seeing him and hearing his voice, will make an impression never to be forgotten.
