Description

This shiur discusses the bracha of "שעשה לי נס במקום זה." Specifically, there is a bracha that one should recite upon seeing the place where he or she experienced a miracle. The Poskim disagree as to how to define a "miracle" which would warrant this bracha. This shiur connects this topic to Parshas Va'era, which discusses the miracles of the Makkot. Additionally, the hailstones of Barad are related to both the parsha and this sugya.
