    Your women’s class this week is fire!!!!

    So many thoughts comments realizations connections truths messages in my own life.

    But more universally what came up for me was —-Gilad Shalit and how that exchange started a domino effect. Gilad we are STILL feeling.

    What does it mean in light of the ghosts of past.

    "Sefer Bamidbar ends all the Torah stories and

    Sefer Devorim is only Moshe's farewell speech". Really? What about the last few pesukim of Devorim that is about Moshe's passing? It was mentioned that there is no "grand finale" at the end of Bamidar. Surely Moshe's passing is such a relevant grand finale of the Book of the Torah of Moshe.
