Description

Haktav V'hakabbalah fascinatingly walks us through translating words more correctly. What constitutes Bikkurim fruit? Who is the kohen "of your time"? Did Lavan really cause the descent to Egypt? What is the "tov" over which the Bikkurim bringer is meant to rejoice? Why do we ask Hashem to "Hashkifa" from His heavenly abode? Can't He look using a different verb? Was the entire Torah to be written on the stones Yehoshua was to set up in the holy land? Why is the phrase "Ani Hashem Elokeichem" randomly inserted in a statement Moshe is making in 29:5?
