The Book of Shemot takes us on a  transformative journey from slavery in Egypt to an encounter with God at  Har Sinai to the building of the Mishkan. Along the way, we witness the  ups and downs, twists and turns, rivalries and epiphanies that  contribute to the emergence of Am Yisrael as an independent entity with a  newfound identity. At the helm stands, of course, Moshe Rabbeinu, whose  own process of maturation develops alongside his people.

In this class with Rabbanit Yafit Clymer we delve into the text and centuries of commentary to follow the  parallel trajectories of a nation and its leader. We will explore the  major ideas, characters, motifs and patterns in this foundational sefer  and learn valuable lessons about the Torah’s notions of leadership, law,  society, freedom and, ultimately, how it all ties into our relationship  with God

The third chapter of Moed Katan explains that people in extenuating  circumstances can get haircuts and shave on Chol HaMoed. We will also  learn what a mourner and leper are not allowed to do. The Gemara then  describes people who have been excommunicated and what the ramifications  are for different levels of excommunication. We will also learn what  scrolls or documents may or may not be written on Chol HaMoed.

This week we will learn about how the priests checked and diagnosed  Tzaraat and if they were allowed to do this on Chol HaMoed (Intermediary  Days of the Festival). We will learn what activities one can do in  order to bury someone on Chol HaMoed. The Gemara teaches us that we  can’t have wedding on Chol HaMoed because we don’t fix celebrations. The  second chapter begins by discussing the activities that are prohibited  for a mourner and on Chol HaMoed.
