Description

We will try to understand the mitzva of "kedoshim Tihiyu" and the prohibition of "BeChukoseyhem Lo Selchu" based upon the Ramban and the giants of Chasidus and Mussar. If we take their message to heart, if we dedicate our lives to a uniquely Jewish approach to life, we can justify our very existence in this world. We will touch upon the Torah's attitude towards sports, particularly hunting, as formulated by one of the greatest of poskim, the Noda B'Yehuda. Our longing for Eretz Yisrael, as expressed in the opening paragraph of the night of Pesach, takes on a new meaning.
