Mishlei 13:23 - Poor Victims of Injustice or Mishleic Fools? 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 13:23 - Poor Victims of Injustice or Mishleic Fools?

רׇב אֹכֶל נִיר רָאשִׁים וְיֵשׁ נִסְפֶּה בְּלֹא מִשְׁפָּט:

Length: 1 hour 38 minutes
Synopsis: Tonight (6/3/24), in our Monday Night Mishlei shiur, we analyzed what LOOKED like it was going to be the most difficult pasuk we've learned all year. The questions kept mounting, and I was nervous about whether we were going to emerge with any ideas. Well, much to my surprise, we came away with not one, not two, but ELEVEN interpretations! :O Eight of our own, and three from the meforshim. I believe that's a record ... not that it's a contest. Not only did we strike gold with the quantity of ideas, but also the quality. And we barely even scratched the surface of the meforshim! I'm really pleased with the ideas and the teamwork we engaged in to get there.
