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.

(If you are not receiving the NISHMA INSIGHT, we invite you join our mailing/e-mail list through completing our sign-up form available at our website.)

INSIGHT 5780 - #01: KNOWING THE FUTURE

For  Vayeilech, Shabbat Shuvah

Not yet available on the Nishma website

I wanted to add that the statement in T.B. Baba Batra 17a which identifies the four individuals who never sinned (Binyamin, the son of Yaakov Avinu; Amram, the father of Moshe Rabbeinu; Yishai, the father of Dovid HaMelech; and Caleiv, the son of Dovid HaMelech) is most significant to our topic. These four individuals, while significant in their own right, were still not the greatest individuals within Jewish history. It would seem that these 'greatest individuals' made mistakes as well.
