With the entire nation gathered on his final day of life, Moshe warns the people against being seduced by idolatry. The nation, Moshe reveals, is particularly vulnerable to idolatry because of the people whose land through which we have traversed. We saw the Egyptian fascination with idolatry. We saw the various other nations obsession with paganism. Consequently, we are susceptible to mimicking their ways. In this special edition of the Parsha Podcast – the antepenultimate episode of the fifth cycle of The Parsha Podcast – we explore a mysterious and quite inexplicable element of Moshe’s warning. What we discover is quite surprising.
