From the Old City of Jerusalem, insights into the weekly Torah Reading.
Rabbi Chaim Richman
Rabbi Chaim Richman is the Director of the International Department of The Temple Institute in Jerusalem.The Torah reading of Va'etchanan is always read in close proximity to the unique holiday of Tu B'Av - the 15th of Av.
It's no wonder - both Va'etchanan and Tu B'Av speak of love: G-d's love for Israel, our love for G-d ,our love for one another, and our love for eretz Yisrael - the land of Israel.
Love makes it all possible.
