1. In the Market for Genocide - Dispatchers of Dread

   Chazal's Preambles to Megillat Esther: Part 3

   Rabbi Moshe Taragin | 17 דקות

   This shiur examines the significance of dispatching letters - a newly implemented advancement for a vast empire - and the fear experienced by the Jews after hearing Haman's edict of destruction. The fear is immediate—and the dread gradually builds up, as the people have to wait months for the day of their impending doom. There is a sickening feeling as the advanced technology of the day is being used against them.

2. Noah: Unrequited Hopes

   Rabbi David Silverberg

3. Mishpatim: Shemitta and Modernity

   Rabbi Jonathan Snowbell | 19 דקות

   We take two pesukim as jumping off points for discussion. We look at the verse introducing the concept of Shemitta (the Sabbatical Year) and ask - how do we relate to Shemitta today? We also examine the verse promising that there will eventually be no more widowhood or sickness in the Land. How do we relate to this statement? How can we look at these concepts in the light of modern technology in a way that elevates our relationship with God?
