Parsha:

Tzav,  Vayikra 

Description

Both Parashat Vayikra and Parashat Tzav speak at length about each of the five categories of sacrifices. What is the relationship between these two sets of chapters? Why are some laws included in one unit, others in the second, and yet others in both? Why is there a need for two distinct discussions at all; could not the Torah have combined all the laws into one unit? This Torahcast, brought to you by ALHATORAH.ORG, featuring Neima Novetsky, explores these questions and more.
