About this episode
Our nation has no shortage of enemies. This is not new. Even in antiquity, our nation was always a target. Laban, Jacob’s father-in-law, try to smothered the Jewish Nation in its infancy. I’m this week’s Parsha, to fearsome, shadowy figures try to do the same. Balak, king of Moab, commissions Bilaam, master sorcerer and prophet, to curse and decimate the nation. Although their diabolical scheme fails, the lessons that we learn from this parsha are transformative. – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – This Parsha Podcast is dedicated in honor of two Genecov Birthdays: Happy birthday Dr. Lisa Genecov and happy birthday to her son Max Genecov.
