Mishlei 24:19-20 - Don't Jealously Compete with Evildoers (Part 1)
(יט) אַל תִּתְחַר בַּמְּרֵעִים אַל תְּקַנֵּא בָּרְשָׁעִים.
(כ) כִּי לֹא תִהְיֶה אַחֲרִית לָרָע נֵר רְשָׁעִים יִדְעָךְ.
Length: 40 minutes
Synopsis: This morning (5/8/23), in our morning Mishlei shiur, we revisited a pair of pesukim we learned back in Decemeber 2020 (because they were vaguely Chanukah-themed). According to the shownotes on the podcast, I wasn't satisfied with what we came up with then. Thankfully, I have no memory of what we said! Today we outlined several fruitful approaches, and ended up with at least one which seems like a good pshat. Tomorrow we'll see what the other meforshim have to say (בג"ה).
Please feel free to leave your questions, insights, and feedback in the comments!
