These are the Words – Part One

September 03, 2016

In this class, Ross begins to teach his series on the Book commonly known as Deuteronomy. In this first class of the series, he provides an introduction to Moses’ final words to the children of Israel. Ross shows that the purpose of the Torah’s fifth book is to present the Teaching in a plain way. He also shows that Devarim employs a different style than other books of the Torah, and that it uses keys words and phrases found only here in Devarim. These are the words! This is the way the book begins. This is also the original name for the book. It truly is about words; it’s about words that still have the power to change the world in which we live.
