Description

The parsha contains two p’sukim that, at first glance, appear to contradict each another: the prohibition on a specific act of sexual intimacy between men (“mishkav zachar”) and the command to love others as one loves oneself (“v’ahavta l’rei’acha kamocha”). Explore with me as we harmonize these p’sukim.
