#18 - The Mitzvah of Learning/Teaching Torah
Update: 2023-05-22
Description
Based on Mishnah Torah I: Book of Knowledge, the Laws of Torah Study, Ch. 1
- Why is there a separate mitzvah to study Torah? Isn't it assumed that we'll know the law to keep the law?
- To what extent do we have to teach Torah to others?
Torah study is the heart and soul of Judaism, but why? In the words of Rabbi Shlomo Freifeld zt"l: "Religious observance is personal, but ignorance is treason." Not knowing is tantamount to not teaching or mis-teaching. We're letting ourselves down, and we're letting down everyone who depends on us for guidance.
