The Elephant of Deliberate Forgetfulness: and other unexpected interpretations of the weekly Torah reading
“The Elephant of Deliberate Forgetfulness” pretends to be a book on the Weekly Torah reading (parashat hashavua). However, it is really a collection of fascinating and interesting historical stories of kings and queens, baseball stars and explorers, scientists and inventors. The men and women who you may not have heard of, and you certainly haven’t heard these stories before. Written for all audiences with no background knowledge required.

Join me as I learns through each section of this core prayer, explaining its origins and presenting ways of helping us relate to it daily.
