  2. Of Concealed and Revealed

    Rabbi Chanoch Waxman |

    Verse 28, the final verse of Chapter 29 in Devarim states that "that which is concealed is for God, and that which is revealed is for us and for our children – to follow the words of the Torah." What is meant by “concealed things”? What are revealed? To untangle this perplexing verse, we examine the wider context in which it appears: The people are gathered to be brought into a “covenant and a curse” before entering the Land of Israel. The curses mentioned within beg for a comparison with the curses to be recited at Mount Eival (Eibal), as well as to the story of Akhan in the Book of Yehoshua. We are then able to uncover fundamental notions of corporate responsibility and partnership in Parashat Nitzavim.
