- Last week was double parsha of This has one of the Torah's most problematic verses, Leviticus 18.22. I am annoyed with everything I read that tried to redeem it or explain it away. I really prefer just to say it is one of the many places my religion taught the wrong thing.
- This parsha has "You shall be holy, for I, the Eternal your God, am holy" and "Love your neighbor as yourself", which is the right bridge to build here I believe. reformjudaism.org/learning/tor...
- If your main take way from this parsha isn't "be holy" or "make sure to let your trees grow for three years before you take their fruit" that's on you.
