The Blessing & The Curse

The Blessing & The Curse

Sefer Devarim speaks about ‘the blessing and the curse.’ If we keep the mitzvot in the Torah we receive the blessing and if not, the curse. Join Rabbi Dr. Stuart Fischman as he examines how the great sages of the past understood this and what it means for us today.

Hello Everyone,

In last week’s Torah reading (פרשת ראה) Moshe Rabbeinu tells our ancestors that he will present them with blessings and curses. The actual blessings and curses will be seen in פרשת כי תבוא.

Today and next week we will discuss the the idea of blessings and curses and what lessons we are meant to learn from them.

I look forward to meeting with you.

If anyone has any ideas or questions please feel free to write to me at fish9999@gmail.com
