Shalom! This is my commentary on the portion Miketz – “at the end.” For years, this portion has fascinated me, not only for the fascinating story but, for the prophetic elements. Understanding that we interpret the end from “the beginning” (Isa. 46:8-10), that a torah portion is called “at the end” should grab our attention. […]

Shalom! This is my commentary on the portion Vayeshev – “and he dwelt.” In this portion, Joseph goes down into Egypt to serve Potiphar, only to be thrown into jail, falsely accused. Yet, we see the Hand of the Creator at work by giving dreams to two men in prison so that Joseph might be […]

In this story we see a picture of the Heavenly Father’s devotion […]

This is my commentary on the torah portion Vayera – “And He appeared.” In this torah portion we see the culmination of Abraham’s transformation from just a man with a calling to the spiritual father of a nation. The pinnacle of this sidrah is the akeidah – the binding of Isaac – and Abraham’s unwavering […]

This is my commentary on the torah portion Lech L’cha- “Go for yourself.” In this portion we have one of the most important stories Scripture has to offer – the call of Abram of Ur to become Abraham the Hebrew. Moreover, the events described in this portion relating to Abraham’s life are a pattern for […]
