What we discussed: Parashat D’varim

Wondering what we discussed this past Shabbat? Here is a link to Friday Night’s D’Var Torah: The Past Does Not Hold the Future Hostage

 

On Saturday, we discussed the tribal leaders that were selected to assist Moses in adjudicating the Israelites’ questions. In Deuteronomy, Moses tells the people that each tribe selected its men of wisdom and understanding/discernment, but in Exodus, Yitro told Moses to make those selections. We asked the question, why the difference? And which is the better approach? What do you think? Here is a link to the source sheet.

And MAZAL TOV to Benjamin Peikes-Wertheimer and his family on his Bar Mitzvah on Saturday afternoon!

Hope to see you next week!

Shavua Tov!
