Shabbat Morning Derasha on the Parasha
|
|
Among the many shiurim that Rabbi Eli Mansour
delivers throughout the week, the Shabbat morning class is likely the most exciting
and inspiring, and for many members of his congregation and beyond, it is the
highlight of the week. In this shiur,
the Rabbi weaves together meaningful, practical lessons with penetrating textual
insights into the weekly parasha and profound concepts of Jewish mystical
thought. Through his trademark
combination of scholarship, humor, and a practical, real-life understanding of
people, and by building upon an eclectic array of traditional Rabbinic sources,
the Rabbi succeeds, week after week, to captivate the large audience and fuel
their love and dedication to Torah. We
are proud to present transcripts of these lectures for our readership to read,
study, and enjoy.
This feature is solemnly dedicated to the memory of
Moises Saba A”H, who was tragically taken from us at a young age in the winter
of 2010. Each time he visited Brooklyn,
Moises ensured to visit Congregation Bet Yaacob and attend Rabbi Mansour’s
Shabbat morning shiur, for which he felt special affection. His love and devotion to Torah, and
especially to this weekly shiur, was and still is an inspiration to the entire
congregation. We humbly dedicate this
project to his memory, and pray that his memory and the merit of his Torah-rich
life shall be a source of blessing and inspiration for our community, our
readership, and all Am Yisrael.
