Welcome to the Nishma Insight Discussion Forum blog.


The NISHMA INSIGHT is our popular dvar Torah, distributed almost every week by e-mail, that touches upon an important concept in the Parsha, theme in a holiday or event in contemporary society.

Often, readers respond, via e-mail, with comments that initiate a further dialogue. Through this Discussion Forum, we now wish to open this dialogue to others. If you have a comment on the INSIGHT, we invite you place to your comments here; then we invite everyone to join the discussion.

Insight 5773-26: Derech Eretz

For Vayikra
Not yet available on the Nishma website.

Study Questions

1) One may wish to consider how derech eretz compares to the concept of  mitzvot suchliyot [technically: rational commandments] or, in more general terms, natural morality.

2) In a similar vein, one may want to look at the relationship of derech eretz to the Noachide Code.
