TorahSweets- The Best
Guest post by JewishByte Contributor, Rabbi Yosef Tropper of CloseToTorah.com
The sin of the Golden Calf, found in this Parsha, brought the Jew’s victorious exodus to a screeching halt.
The Torah records the event for us to learn its lesson. I believe that an examination of the contents of the entire Parsha will show one underlining theme meant to be learned from the terrible sin.
כי תשא את ראש בני ישראל… (ל:יב). “When you count the Jews…” (30:12).
