This morning we discuss the curious Haftorah we read yesterday for the Torah portion of Behar, which details a seemingly routine (and boring) real estate transaction. We show its subtle, but monumental and dramatic message - especially addressed to us today, and the way it provides the antidote to the terrifying prophecies of destruction, exile, and hopelessness in this week's Parsha, B'Chukosai.

Michael Whitman is the senior rabbi of ADATH Congregation in Hampstead, Quebec, and an adjunct professor at McGill University Faculty of Law. ADATH is a modern orthodox synagogue community in suburban Montreal, providing Judaism for the next generation. We take great pleasure in welcoming everyone with a warm smile, while sharing inspiration through prayer, study, and friendship.

Rabbi Whitman shares his thoughts and inspirations through online lectures and shiurim, which are available on:
