Notes on the Weekly Torah Portions

The notes collected in this book were broadcast on television as weekly 12-15 minute talks every Friday from 1986 to 1987 as part of the Torah reading cycle. These talks were not pre-planned or written down in advance but were carried out as freestyle conversations. Every conversation is about one detail in the weekly portion, whether a whole verse or a single word that the broadcaster wanted to pass on to the audience. The text was slightly edited to change it from an oral presentation to a written one.
