Have any questions, insights, or feedback? Send me a text!In this third and final installment in this series (given at YBT on 9/30/20) we conclude our learning of the Ralbag's Introduction to Chumash. This was a jam-packed shiur in which we: - revisit the last two paragraphs we rushed through last time, raising questions, giving answers, and providing clarifications along the way- read through the Ralbag's exalted yet tragic plan for the two major works he intended to write, but didn't- take up an example of the Ralbag's approach in action, as applied to the first mitzvah in Torah: peru u'revu (Bereishis 1:28)- discuss the relationship between the Ralbag's approach and the Rambam's definition of Torah she'baal Peh and his "shelish" approach to Talmud Torah - finish reading and discussing the pertinent parts of his intro- take a guided tour through his commentary in order to show how to use it- bonus content at the end: an answer to the question, "What should I learn this year for shnayim mikra besides Onkelos?" (spoiler: the answer is Onkelos)----------מקורות:רלב"ג - פתיחה לביאור התורהרלב"ג - ביאור לבראשית א:כחרמב"ם - משנה תורה, הקדמה----------If you have questions, comments, or feedback, I would love to hear from you!
