Lemmelijn, Biblica, 1999 Exodus 7:51-8:21 By Menachem Leibtag, in Memory of Rabbi Avraham Leibtag. From The Tanach Study Center. Just as this week's Parsha describes the final stages of the construction of the Mishkan, this week's Haftara describes the final stages of the construction of the First Bet HaMikdash. In both cases, the climax centers on the Sh'china - in the form of the anan - covering the new structure, a sign that indeed His Divine Presence rests within Am Yisrael Brit Bein Ha'Btarim or Brit Milah?

Along their journey from Egypt towards Har Sinai, Bnei Yisrael encounter frightening war and life-threatening shortages of food and water. Are they expected not to complain, to passively accept this fate and just sit back and wait patiently for God's salvation? Is God simply 'testing' their patience? Amalek - genetic or generic? By Menachem Leibtag, in Memory of Rabbi Avraham Leibtag. From The Tanach Study Center. Amalek is singled out as Israel's 'arch enemy.'

Suomala, Luther College, Hugoye: Journal of Syriac Studies, July 2004 The Four Stages of Ma'amad Har Sinai By Menachem Leibtag, in Memory of Rabbi Avraham Leibtag. From The Tanach Study Center. The primary purpose of Ma'amad Har Sinai was Bnei Yisrael's receiving of the Torah. The Torah's presentation of this event reflects the dialectic nature of our relationship with God When Did Yitro Come? (Ein Mukdam U'm'uchar Ba'Torah) By Menachem Leibtag, in Memory of Rabbi Avraham Leibtag. From The Tanach Study Center. The study of how the Torah presents the laws, i.e. their sequence and progression, as well as the manner in which the laws are given, will be no less significant than the study of the mitzvot themselves!

By Menachem Leibtag, in Memory of Rabbi Avraham Leibtag. From The Tanach Study Center. Had it not been for Chet Ha'Egel, would Bnei Yisrael have needed a Mishkan? Many claim that the answer to this 'philosophical' question lies in the famous 'exegetical' controversy between Rashi and Ramban concerning when God commanded Bnei Yisrael to build the Mishkan, before or after the sin of the golden calf Chet Ha'Egel and the 13 Midot of Rachamim By Menachem Leibtag, in Memory of Rabbi Avraham Leibtag. From The Tanach Study Center. Does it make sense that Bnei Yisrael truly believed that it was a 'golden calf' (and not God) who took them out of Egypt? Obviously not, but when they see the calf, this seems to be precisely what they say: "...this is your god O' Israel, who took you out of the Land of Egypt!" In Part I of this week's shiur, we present an interpretation that attempts to explain this and many other difficulties of the story of Chet Ha'Egel, by taking into consideration many of the events that had transpired earlier in Sefer Shmot Breastplate of the High Priest Morris Jastrow Jr., Ira Maurice Price, Marcus Jastrow and Louis Ginzberg in the Jewish Encyclopedia, 1906 Exodus 32 as an argument for traditional theism By Master, Jonathan, Journal of the Evangelical Theological Society, Dec 2002 Ex 33 on God's face: A Lesson from the Enochic Tradition Article by Andre A. Orlov of Marquette University Clothing From Heaven (Exodus 39) Douglas B. Clawson, in Kerux: The Journal of Northwest Theological Seminary From Sefer Shmot to Vayikra and Bamidbar By Menachem Leibtag, in Memory of Rabbi Avraham Leibtag. From The Tanach Study Center. The dramatic, triumphant conclusion of Sefer Shmot seems to end on a 'sour note': although the Sh'china returns, Moshe Rabbeinu cannot enter the Mishkan! Did something go wrong? Was Moshe unworthy? |
