The Great Light on the Threshold of Shirat HaYam

BS”D Several weeks ago, I set out to write what I thought would be a single longish article… Many hours and 4,837 words later, I found myself putting the finishing touches on a three part series of articles. I’m surprised at where this magnum opus Hashem sent me went– the unexpected turns, side paths, and…

Pesach: The Festival of Matzah and Ourselves

BS”D Pesach is known as חג המצות, the festival of matzos. It is actually the name Hashem uses when He refers to this festival.

What is the Connection Between Tu BiShevat and Pesach?

BS”D Both Tu BiShevat and Pesach each have their own version of a sedar. Is there any connection between these two holidays? There is a fairly well-known custom to make a sedar on the night of Tu BiShevat where participants eat fruits in a specific order, drink four cups of wine, and read a series…

The Hidden Lessons of Gemara Shabbos 104a

BS”D In the process of doing research for another article, I landed on Gemara Shabbos 104a. This page delves into the significance of both the form and order of the Hebrew alphabet among other things. What I saw there “jumped out” at me so much that I realized I needed to put the first article…
