Torah (1)

Shmuel has returned home to Israel after his long summer travels and has a teaching to share for this week’s portion, Shoftim. This week’s portion is a serious one that is full of relevant commands, namely: the rules of war. Men who have recently planted vineyard, built a house or become engaged are to be released from military service. Why are these three events so crucial? It’s because these elements can be found in the story of Creation. Join Shmuel for a teaching on love, creation, and the original rules of military engagement. Shabbat Shalom!
