My dear readers, today we are going to talk about one of my favorite characters in the Bible. Of all the four matriarchs (Sarah, Rebecca, Leah, and Rachel), Rebecca’s personality is the most fully defined and described in Scripture.

Dear friends, we are back to our “Three plus Four” series and are now moving to the “Four” part: the Matriarchs. You know, when I started to write this series, the title just “popped up” in my head, seemingly randomly. However, the more I’ve thought about it during these last months, the more meaningful and […]

My dear readers, we have just finished the book of Acts, and are about to start a new series. Before we do that however, I would like to do something else. As you know by now, from time to time I post a Torah Portion (Parashat Shavua) commentary here. Parashat Shavua ChuKkat is one of […]
Mission Not Accomplished Yet This is my last post on the book of Acts. When I started this series, almost a year ago, I wrote: “For a very long time, I have wanted to go through the Book of Acts together with my readers. Too often, this particular book is perceived as a demarcation line, […]
My dear readers, we continue reading the book of Acts. We are now in chapter 23, again in Jerusalem, and therefore there are a lot of details in this chapter that require the knowledge of its Jewish background. Paul and Sanhedrin Chapter 23 opens with the convening of the Sanhedrin. Luke’s words “Paul, looking intently […]
