Description

Derashah for Parshat Tetzaveh/Zachor 5786. The importance of names, as seen in the discussion of Moshe's name in Tetzaveh, Nechemiah's name on his sefer, the names carried by the kohen gadol, and the erasure of the name of Amalek. Knowing a name makes the named person more relevant. We should make sure to know the names of agunot, and so be motivated to act and daven for them.
