This week’s Torah portion — Parashat Ki Tavo (Deuteronomy 26:1-29:8) — begins with Moses instructing the people of Israel to bring the first fruit they reap in the holy land to the holy temple in gratitude to God. The portion goes on to state the laws concerning tithes given to the Levites and the poor. Moses then gives the children of Israel instructions on the blessings and curses they must say at Mount Gerizim and Mount Ebal (the “Mount of the Blessing” and the “Mount of the Curse”). At the end of the portion, Moses lists the good and bad things that will happen to the Children of Israel if they follow or stray from the Torah. The following rabbis have discussed Ki Tavo with us since 2013.
