Aleph Beta Patron's Circle

Join Rabbi Fohrman for an unprecedented exploration into one of the Torah's most profound mysteries: The interplay between the divine names Elohim and Yud-Heh-Vav-Heh. Judaism’s most fundamental tenet is monotheism – the notion that there is but one God in this universe of ours. And yet, the Torah refers to God, seemingly haphazardly, using more than one name. Who is this deity, Elokim or YHV...

In Parshat Emor, we read through the laws and details of the Biblical holidays. But this section also includes a few other laws - like the Omer offering, and agricultural laws like Pe’ah and Leket.
