from TakeTen4Torah Daily Torah Podcast · host Rabbi Shmuel Ismach
Parashat Mishpatim is the first large collection of laws that were given to the Jews. This Ten looks closely at two of those laws: 1) the prohibition against cursing a leader and 2) the command to follow the majority and argues that each target behavior is related to organizing a society and crowd control. Listen to why, for a fledgling nation, these laws may have been the most important.
