The Conclusion of the Portion of Mishpatim Topics Include:
• The Jewish Holidays –
Passover, Shavuot and Sukkot
• G-d’s Promise of Protection
• Laws Upon Entry to the Promised Land
This popular Torah study group, now celebrating its 17th year, studies the text of the Torah verse by verse. This semester the study group will focus on the The Conclusion of the Portion of Mishpatim, which details the civil laws of the Jewish people.
The greatness of Judaism is not simply in its noble vision of a free, just and compassionate society, but in the way it brings this vision down to earth in detailed legislation. In fact, civil law in Judaism is not viewed as secular law but as holy, spiritual and dear to G-d as the rituals.
The Ten Commandments contains the vision, but G-d is in the details. Without the vision, law is blind. But without the details, the vision floats in heaven. With them the divine presence is brought down to earth, where we need it most.
You are invited to join this study group at any time during the semester.
