נֶפֶשׁ עָמֵל עָמְלָה לּוֹ, כִּי⁠ אָכַף עָלָיו פִּיהוּ: This evening (3/10/24), in our Monday Night Mishlei shiur, we took up one of the most difficult-to-translate pesukim in recent memory! Even after going through several translations and minimalist meforshim, we felt no closer to forming our own view on how to READ the pasuk, let alone explain it. But this provided us with a unique opportunity to practice learning a pasuk we couldn't confidently read. Miraculously, nearly everyone in the shiur arrived at a similar idea - each with a different nuance - and this enabled us to make sense of what the pasuk was saying. We then learned three additional ideas from the meforshim. All in all, it was a rich yield, considering the difficulty we faced at first! https://rabbischneeweiss.substack.com/
