1. Eikha Chapter 5

   Part 8

   Dr. Yael Ziegler | 41 דקות

   This shiur analyzes Chapter Five and summarizes the significance of the structural and theological implications of the entire book. The peripheral chapters reflect an approach of examining sins. The inner chapters portray the suffering of the innocent. The central chapter grapples with living in a world we cannot understand, stating that there is a greater purpose, and that God is not capricious. Chapter Five shows more hope and progress, as the grieving community seeks a renewed relationship with God.

2. A DEMONSTRATION OF FAITH THROUGH SPEECH

   Rabbi Dr. Yehuda Brandes

3. Beshalach - Tefilla and Action

   Rabbi Jonathan Snowbell | 30 דקות

   Bnei Yisrael are standing at the Sea, and they see the Egyptian forces coming. They call out to God, praying. Moshe tells them that God will fight for them, and that they are to proceed. How are Bnei Yisrael supposed to go if Moshe has not yet been commanded to split the sea? And how are we to understand the predicament of “Moshe’s hands were heavy” during the war with Amalek?  And where does the story of the manna fit in? We find some interesting parallels to Korban Tamid. The connections between the successive stories in Beshallah, model different aspects of the idea that God demands tefilla combined with action.
