Mishlei 15:25 - Haughty Houses and Helpless Widows (Part 1)

בֵּית גֵּאִים יִסַּח יְיָ וְיַצֵּב גְּבוּל אַלְמָנָה:

Length: 44 minutes
Synopsis: This morning (4/30/25), in our morning Mishlei shiur, we returned to chapter 15 after nearly a month's break! Of the many questions we raised on this morning's pasuk, the main ones had to do with the incongruity and the mechanics. We developed some really nice approaches which we fleshed out with real-world examples, and picked up on some nice methodology along the way. Tomorrow (בג"ה) we'll delve into the meforshim.

The total cost of producing my five podcasts in 2024 came to $1,455—an expense I would have otherwise had to cover myself. I’m deeply grateful to the generous sponsors who helped shoulder that cost and supported my efforts to make Torah ideas available and accessible to everyone.

Mishlei 16:30 - Pursed Lips Sink Ships

עֹצֶה עֵינָיו לַחְשֹׁב תַּהְפֻּכוֹת קֹרֵץ שְׂפָתָיו כִּלָּה רָעָה:

Length: 1 hour 24 minutes
Synopsis: This evening (4/28/25), we returned to our Monday Night Mishlei shiur with a small but strong crew! The pasuk had some strange words, but we came up with several nice (and integrated!) approaches on our own, then learned two juicy ideas from the meforshim. If you ever face people who plot even OR if you have some not-so-wholesome thoughts yourself, then this pasuk is for you!

Mishlei 15:24 - The Maskil's Orach Chayim (Part 2)

אֹרַח חַיִּים לְמַעְלָה לְמַשְׂכִּיל לְמַעַן סוּר מִשְּׁאוֹל מָטָּה:

Length: 47 minutes
Synopsis: This morning (4/3/25), in our morning Mishlei shiur, we reviewed the approaches from yesterday, then started learning through the meforshim. We began with Rashi (oddly enough), who didn't disappoint, then followed our usual pecking order of Metzudas David, Rabbeinu Yonah, Meiri, and R' Sheishes. We didn't get EVERYTHING, but we still learned some nice ideas and practiced some critical methodology.

Please feel free to leave your questions, insights, and feedback in the comments!
