July 29, 2022 Rabbi Matt Schneeweiss Season 9 Episode 23
Machshavah Lab
Masei: How to Read the Travels of Bnei Yisrael
Show Notes

Synopsis: This is the audio version of the 1-page article I wrote, entitled Masei: How to Read the Travels of Bnei Yisrael, in which we learn the Rambam's answer to the question, "Why does the Torah 'waste' so many pesukim by listing all 42 encampments of Bnei Yisrael in the Wilderness?" and discuss its implications for how we read this perek.
