Kol Ramah

Another episode featuring Gesher with a surprise phone call.

I play so much Hebrew Disney, so why not explore it? And, yes, I do sing here.

Jonah Seidenfeld (not pictured),Harris Cohen, Sam Feldman, and Rafi Rockman talk to Kol Ramah about skipping Bechirot and what goes on in Chug.

Parashat Eqev [Deuteronomy 7:12-11:28] features, among other things, the 2nd paragraph of the Shema [11:13-21], which we discuss in light of its last line and the general Deuteronomic theme of שכר ועונש [s’khar v-o’nesh, reward & punishment], the biblical source for ברכת המזון [birkat ha-mazon, grace after meals], which we discuss in the context of how punctuation informs meaning, and the rabbinic limit on praise of God in תפילה [t’fillah, prayer] (10:17), which we do not discuss at all! We do get to a few verses of the haftarah [prophetic portion, Isaiah 49:14-51:3]. It is a lively conversation! Comments and criticisms are welcome at parshatalk@gmail.com.

I (BC)am posting this from Cleveland, to where I have come for the funeral of my dearest and best friend, David Graham Foster, affectionately known as Fuzz [at least in my circle] for nearly all the fifty years we were friends. תהי נשמתו צרורה בצרור החיים. May his soul be bound up in the bond of eternal life. יהי זכרו ברוך. May his memory be for a blessing. Parashat Va-etchanan [Deuteronomy 3:23-7:11] contains, among other things of note, both the first paragraph of the Sh’ma [6:4-9] and the retelling of the 10 Commandments [5:6-17]. As Eliot explains in his introduction, it is the kind of parashah where we could spend an hour on each verse. We give ourselves about a half hour, 35 minutes most weeks, so there is much we do not get to. One of the reasons I like Parashah Talk myself is because each week I learn something. I know that I will not be saying the Sh’ma again in quite the same way! Let us know what you think at parshatalk@gmail.com. Shabbat Shalom!
