Even though Moses' fervent prayer seems to not have been granted, he teaches us to never give up on our prayers being answered. By Chana Weisberg |  |  | | | Studying Rashi: Parshat Va'etchanan
The Torah describes the revelation at Sinai by saying: "You have been shown, in order to know that the Lord He is G-d; there is none else besides Him." (Deuteronomy 4:35) Rashi explains that the way G-d showed the people is that "He tore open the heaven and earth." How are we to understand this unusual imagery?

Professor Samuelson argues that secularism, humanism and the Enlightenment can be more properly understood as a non-Jewish distortion of Jewish Messianism. "A Sir Isaiah Berlin Lecture" By Norbert M. Samuelson | | | | | Stick Figure Vignette: Parshat Va'etchanan
A headless, one-armed stick man does some stuff. By Dovid Taub and DovBer Naiditch | | | | | Letters and Numbers of Torah - Va'etchanan
In the verse "Hear O Israel, the Lord our G-d, the Lord is One," (Deuteronomy 6:4) the letter Ayin in the word Shema (Hear) and the letter Daled in the word Echad (One) are both unusually large. Ayin and Dalet spell Ayd (witness) to teach us that when we recite the Shema we should bear witness to G-d's Oneness. Aaron L. Raskin | | | | | The Judaism Video Website
