Mishlei 14:33 - How the Navon and the Ksil Relate to Chochmah (Part 1) 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!

Mishlei 14:33 - How the Navon and the Ksil Relate to Chochmah (Part 1)

בְּלֵב נָבוֹן תָּנוּחַ חׇכְמָה, וּבְקֶרֶב כְּסִילִים תִּוָּדֵעַ:

Length: 45 minutes
Synopsis: This morning (5/29/24), in our morning Mishlei shiur, we began a pasuk filled with "Mishleic knowledge terminology": chochmah, navon, ksil, yediah. I thought we'd get bogged down in the jargon, but instead, we developed several really nice ideas! The biggest question on all of our ideas was: "What is the practical application?" - a question I'd like to return to tomorrow, when we review what we learned, finish analyzing Metzudas David, and move on to the other meforshim.

In other news, I am considering relaunching my Rambam Bekius podcast. My goal is to cover the entirety of the Rambam’s Hilchos Tefilah, halacha by halacha, in short (5-10 minute) daily episodes. If you are interested in sponsoring my Rambam content specifically, please let me know! I’m eager to make this project a reality, and I’m ready when you are!
