Curated by: Avital Hochstein

Introduction:

I am so honored to be writing the Hadar weekly Divrei Torah for 5777/2016-2017. I will focus on listening to the voices that appear between the lines (the white fire behind the black fire, if you will) and what these voices are truly saying to us about relationships and about God. My primary tool will be my own close textual reading, combined with the insight of the way that Hazal read the Torah.

נפלה בחלקי הזכות ונתבקשתי לכתוב את דברי התורה השבועיים של מכון הדר השנה. במוקד עיוני יעמדו מערכות יחסים, הקולות שבין השורות, (הלבן שבין השחור אם תרצו) ומה אלו מספרים לנו. עוד, תעסיק אותי כמובן הדמות המרכזית: אלוהים.

כלי עזר בסיסי יהיה הקשבה זהירה ושימת לב למילים, ועל פי רוב איעזר גם באופן שבו חזל בחרו לקרא את התורה.
