Mishlei 12:22 - Why Hashem Hates Liars and Favors Truth Doers Artwork

The Mishlei Podcast

My name is Rabbi Matt Schneeweiss, and this is the hub for all of my shiurim (classes) on Sefer Mishlei, a.k.a. The Book of Proverbs! Generally speaking we will follow the approach to Mishlei outlined by Saadia Gaon who views Mishlei as a guide for intelligent decision-making in everyday life with the goal of maximizing long-term pleasure and minimizing long-term pain. Each shiur will typically focus on one pasuk (verse), which we will attempt to analyze on our own before turning to the meforshim (commentators). If you have any questions feel free to email me at rabbischneeweiss at gmail. Thanks for listening!

תּוֹעֲבַת י"י שִׂפְתֵי שָׁקֶר וְעֹשֵׂי אֱמוּנָה רְצוֹנוֹ:

Length: 1 hour 14 minutes
Synopsis: Tonight (7/17/23), in our Monday Night Mishlei Shiur, we learned the LAST pasuk in the thematic unit we've been learning about lying and truth-telling. The pasuk was simple to read and the questions were clean - as were the ideas we came up with! It was a fitting conclusion to this cluster of pesukim.
