On Tisha B’av we were not allowed to learn Torah. Look at how much Torah is packed into Vaetchanan: 12 mitzvot, the Ten Commandments, and the first paragraph of the shema. I’d like to ask regarding V’ahavta eis Hashem, what Bulletin sponsored by: might be the shiur? The minimum that one has to do to demonstrate love of God or the litmus test? Matzah Carol Weissmann has its kezayit, a mechitza is minimally 10 tefachim, what about Ahavat Hashem? The Yuma (86a) Re/Max Properties Select. says learn Torah, and live a lifestyle that is most honest and pleasant to people. In short, people will come to love Hashem through you. Your being an ambassador for Hashem is the fulfillment and charge of V’ahavta. A Direct phone 201-390-6600 tall order! But remember the Torah does not ask of us what we cannot do.
