Description

Reuven and Gad seem to struggle with Moshe in their request to settle the land on the opposite side of the Jordan. What is really going on beneath this argument? Are the intentions of Reuven and Gad really pure? We not only see this story in a whole new light, but we also show how the issues that come forth in our Parsha play out years later at the end of Sefer Yehoshua when Reuven and Gad finally go home to the land that they were promised in Parshat Matot. (Part of HaMidrasha at QC, OU-JLIC's Torah learning program for women at Queens College)
