In this next episode of Verse Per Verse, Amichai explores the torah portion Toldot. While the story of Toldot is that of the struggle between Jacob and Essau, Amichai has found a different focus.
Amichai explores Genesis Chapter 25, Verse 22, and more specifically the word Lidrosh, which can be translated in so many ways.
We hope that this episode will help you “grok” the nuance that is the wording of the torah.
