5 Minute Torah - Vayikra - God’s Love Language
Why does the book of Vayikra (Leviticus) begin with sacrifices, blood, and purification rituals—topics many modern readers would rather avoid? If these practices feel strange or even disturbing today, what did they mean to those who first received them? And why did Jewish tradition begin a child’s Torah education with this very book? The Hebrew word for sacrifice—korban—comes from a root meaning to draw near. But draw near how? On our terms, or on God’s? Leviticus challenges a modern assumption: that worship should reflect our preferences. What if drawing close to God requires approaching Him the way He has asked? Let’s explore why in this week’s 5 Minute Torah.
