Parshas Mishpatim: People of Holiness

In this week’s Parsha the Torah commands us to be Anshei Kodesh – “people of holiness.” There is a question here. Other times, the pasuk says to be holy. How come over here the pasuk says to be “people” of holiness? Wouldn’t it make sense for the pasuk to simply say to be holy? Isn’t…

Parshas Toldos: Successful Parenting

In this week’s Parsha, the Torah tells us that Yitzchok loved Eisav. Why? Ki tzayid befiv, because Eisav would supply him with hunted animals.
