This week we begin the Torah anew with the Book of Genesis. If the Bible is essentially a book of law, why does it begin with the stories of Genesis? Would it not make more sense to skip the stories and start with the legal sections of the Torah? Rashi, a famed medieval commentator, explains that one day the nations of the world will accuse the Jewish People of stealing the Land of Israel. In response, the Jews will point to the Bible which begins by telling us that God created the heaven and the earth. Since God is the Creator of the world, He may give it to whomever He wishes. With this realization, it is understood that the Land of Israel is God's to give to Abraham and his descendants. Now is the perfect time to join our Israel Bible Reading Plan, with an online teacher from Israel, giving incredible insight and Israel commentary into the weekly portion.
