Mishlei 11:17 - Mishlei on Kindness and Cruelty

גֹּמֵל נַפְשׁוֹ אִישׁ חָסֶד וְעֹכֵר שְׁאֵרוֹ אַכְזָרִי:

Last night (4/4/22), in our Monday Night Mishlei Shiur, we learned one of the few pesukim in Sefer Mishlei about chesed. This one was a real doozy to translate! Thankfully, we came up with six or seven of our own approaches to the pasuk and as many in the meforshim. There is still a lot more to be said here, especially if we take our pasuk to be teaching Mishlei's fundamental stance on chesed.

This week's Torah content has been sponsored by Ann, who (against my will) asked that it be sponsored in honor of me. I'd like to take this moment to thank ALL my regular donors and Patrons for their support. The total cost of my five podcasts in 2021 amounted to over $2000 - all of which would have come out of my own pocket were it not for your generosity. Thank you for helping me make Torah ideas available and accessible to everyone!
