Parshah
| August 11, 2010Educated Guess:
Judges and officers the parshah states
Should be placed in all your gates.
Hashem gave judges to all the tribes
Righteous they must be no taking bribes.
They may not be harsh to one and to another kind
If they take a gift it can make them blind.
”Blind” doesn't mean they can't see -- literally
It means they won't judge the case favorably.
In their respected and privileged place
There's something the judges have to chase.
They must follow Hashem's command.
In order to live and inherit the Land.
In this week's parshah can you note?
What must they pursue what is the quote?
There's something we can learn here too
It applies to other mitzvos too!
Parshah in Action:
This week's parshah talks about pursuing righteousness and always telling the truth. It also discusses the navi sheker -- a false prophet.
Truth and a lie is a fun game in which players attempt to guess which of the three statements is not the truth.
Each player thinks of three things to say about themselves two of which are true and one of which is a lie. The object of the game is to guess which one is a lie. Everyone has a turn and everyone guesses which one they believe is the lie.
As an interesting change instead of stating a lie a person says something that might not be true -- yet something that they wish were. For example someone that has never been to Eretz Yisrael might say: “I visited Eretz Yisrael when I was young.”
