How's That Spelled Again?

from Modern Torah Hosted by Nathan J Vaughan

The first of this week's two Torah portions, Achrei Mot, introduces a new word, one that only appears four times in the Hebrew Bible, all in this parsha. And how it's spelled makes a big difference in what it means. I’m not a rabbi, so every week, I look at our Torah portion and try to put it in conversation with the world around me. Judaism is rich in tradition, and each of us deserves the chance to find our own meaning in the text. Whether you’re studying Torah daily, or taking a moment to prepare for Shabbat, I hope you’ll make these ten minutes of Torah part of your week.
