1. Purim's Significance a Few Years Later: The Return to Zion

   Chazal's Preambles to Megillat Esther: Part 7

   Rabbi Moshe Taragin | 17 דקות

   This shiur explores linguistic and thematic parallels between Megillat Esther and the Book of Ezra. The two texts share similar events, motifs, and apparatus of recovery in situations of crisis - perhaps most significantly that of fasting. Ezra's confessional prayer seems to suggest that he derives inspiration and hope from God's Hand which, while hidden, is ever-present, as in the events of Megillat Esther.

3. Dealing With Crisis – David Hamelekh as a Model

   Rabbi Dr. Yehoshua Reiss |

   King David is presented in the Tanakh as a figure who is successful in coping in times of crisis and distress – both on an individual level and as a leader. One of the most difficult events experienced by David was the Amalekite invasion of Ziklag, in which the city was destroyed and his men’s families were taken captive.
