Bereishis: Why Did God Create the World? - Toras Chaim

What this episode covers

Parshah Shiur by R' Elchonon Cohen, on parshas bereishis, G-d's creation of the world, the situation in Israel, and what the purpose of all of creation is. In this weekly parshah series, we will learn the week's torah portion with a focus on Toras Chaim - the study of the torah - not a story, but as a guide to live our lives. The other voice you hear is me, his wife Miriam, known online as @overtimecook. Please excuse the sound issue - we are new to this and figuring it out. ***Correction: the commandment of circumcision is in parshas tazria, not shemini. Comments, questions and requests are welcome!
