The Weekly Torah Portion: Parshat Eikev

Friday, July 31st 2015 Shabbat Candle Lighting time this week: 7:53 PM The Weekly Torah Portion: Parshat Eikev In this weeks Parsha, Moses continues his closing address to the Children of Israel, promising them that if they will fulfill the commandments (mitzvot) of the Torah, they’ll prosper in the Land they are about to conquer and settle in keeping with G-d’s promise to their forefathers. Moses also rebukes them for their failings in their first generation as a people, recalling their worship of the Golden Calf, the rebellion of Korach, the sin of the spies, their angering of G-d at Taveirah, Massah and Kivrot Hataavah. “You have been rebellious against G-d,” he says to them, “since the day I knew you.” But he also speaks of G-d’s forgiveness of their sins, and the Second Tablets which G-d inscribed and gave to them following their repentance. Their forty years in the desert, says Moses to the people, during which G-d sustained them with daily manna from heaven, was to teach them “that man does not live on bread alone, but by the utterance of G-d’s mouth does man live.” Moses describes the land they are about to enter as “flowing with milk and honey,” blessed with the “seven kinds” and as the place that is the focus of G-d’s providence of His world. He commands them to destroy the idols of the land’s former masters, and to beware lest they come haughty and begin to believe that “my power and the might of my hand have gotten me his wealth.” RECENT PHOTOS!
