Devarim — Everyman His Own Leader in Bringing Learning, Kiddush Hashem to Reality

By Moshe Burt

A few years ago, Rav Aba Wagensberg spoke out in a shiur that Sefer Devarim represents Moshe Rabbeinu’s Mussar to B’nai Yisrael as the time of his death drew near.

He explained that near the end of Sefer BaMidbar, we began to see indications, via the story of Zelafchad’s daughters, Reuven and Gad’s desire to settle east of the Jordan, etc., that the B’nai Yisrael finally desired to accept Moshe Rabbeinu’s teachings and his Mussar which was meant to bring about the perfection of the Jewish people in emulation of the ways of Hashem as they were about to enter Eretz Yisrael. read more

By Moshe Burt

Shem Mishmuel brings Rashi quoting Chazal which notes: “These three times — it was a hint that he wanted to uproot the Jewish nation, who celebrate three pilgrim festivals each year.” [2] read more

PM Denies Report He Would Compromise on J’lem

Excerpts:

“Prime Minister Ariel Sharon published a special statement Tuesday night in which he totally dissociated himself from quotes in Newsweek attributed to his pollster, Kalman Gayer, in which Gayer claimed the prime minister was ready for territorial concessions.”

“‘The remarks attributed to Kalman Gayer are in total contradiction to my positions and opinions,’ Sharon’s statement read. ‘If, indeed, these remarks were made, they were made strictly on Mr. Gayer’s initiative, and they are senseless and absurd.'” read more
