Parsha: Ki Savo – Maniacal Determination

Parsha: Ki Savo – Maniacal Determination

Our parsha contains perhaps the most difficult Torah portion to read and digest: The Tochacha (Admonition). In it we are told the consequences of our deeds. If obey the Almighty and hearken to His commandments, He will reward us with bountiful blessings.

Show Notes

Our parsha contains perhaps the most difficult Torah portion to read and digest: The Tochacha (Admonition). In it we are told the consequences of our deeds. If obey the Almighty and hearken to His commandments, He will reward us with bountiful blessings. Should we deviate from Him and repudiate His Torah, however, He promises to unleash all manner of suffering upon us. And it is brutal. Our Sages calculated that the Tochacha contains 98 distinct curses and maledictions. What is the message of these ferocious curses? In this special edition of The Parsha Podcast, we suggest a novel approach to understanding what the Torah wants of us.

This Parsha Podcast is dedicated anonymously in the merit of the speedy recovery for Daniel Zev Ben Miriam. He is a relative of a dear friend of ours who contracted a severe case of COVID and then it was discovered that he has cancer too and is undergoing treatment. He really needs a refuah shlema; please include him in your prayers. May he have a Refuah Sheleima – a complete and total recovery from his illness with no lingering effects.
