Mishlei 15:12 - The Leitz's Lack of Love for Rebuke (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 15:12 - The Leitz's Lack of Love for Rebuke (Part 1)

לֹא יֶאֱהַב לֵץ הוֹכֵחַ לוֹ, אֶל חֲכָמִים לֹא יֵלֵךְ:

Length: 46 minutes
Synopsis: This morning (12/18/24), in our morning Mishlei shiur, we began learning what looked like a VERY obvious pasuk about a familiar Mishleic archetype. Thankfully, the strange litotes (look it up!) in the first half of the pasuk served as a foothold which enabled us to figure out several fruitful approaches. We began learning the meforshim, but we'll continue tomorrow (בג"ה).
