Life Lessons from Parshat Bereishit

Flaxseeds aren't junk I disagree with calling Kayin's offerring of flax seeds "junk' because flax seeds ground or cooked provide omega3, lignans, vitamins and minerals; they are indeed the most important food we can include in our "weekday" diet. Flax seeds should be consumed often.

Sacrificing an animal is something special, an appropriate offerring for Hashem. Taking the lives of animals for food is a serious matter. We as a community, as well as society in general, degrade the animals by killing them for non sacrificial purposes and by eating animal foods every day. Reply

Parshat Bereishit Dear Rabbi Gordon,

Thank you for Life Leasons from Parshat Bereishit. You mentioned you grew up in New Jersey. I grew up in Livingston. Where did you grow up?

there is the possibility that the cherubim can destroy the soul of any who get too close because the power of G_d that is within them. Reply

"One flesh" post-marriage I have a question regarding the expression of "one flesh" of the husband and wife beyond a divorce through the children. You said that children will always "keep their parents together" - does that also mean their one-ness is therefore never really severed? Does it mean anything at all to the new marriage of the divorcees? Reply
