Show Notes

Tonight (10/7/21) we continued our analysis of Tehilim 20. After reviewing the translation according to the Radak, we set out to try to understand the main idea. I mentioned that I only feel like I have 75% of an understanding, but I'd lay out everything I have on the table. As I did, we started to see the main idea materialize ... we just didn't have time to tie it all together. Our plan for next Tuesday will be to do that, to answer Adler's four questions, and (I hope) to gain insight into the minhag of saying this perek at the end of shacharis.
