I want to thank each of you for listening to or reading the Parsha Perspective every week. I hope you have gained as much as I have from the past 200 episodes. Our Parsha introduces Noach, a man who remained faithful to G-d while the rest of society descended into chaos and anarchy. Noach was told by G-d that a Mabul (flood) would soon destroy all of civilization. Only he and his family would survive in a Teviah, an ark he was to build. We find out why we begin with the mistakes of humanity. We learn the Jewish opinion about the optimist and pessimist.
