Description

Parsha & Hashkafa for Bechukosai: Why the punishment of Galut for violating שמיטה? Rashi explains that the 70 years of Galut Bavel were a punishment for Shemitta. But is it possible that for over four centuries the Nation violated this Mitzva?? And where is there any indication in the Parsha of Bechukotai that the curses are punishments for one specific Mitzva? We will study the insights of HaRav YaAkov Kamenetzky za"l.
