Description

Parshas Balak: Not Just Words


Bilaam set out to curse, but ended up blessing. He tried to speak on his own—but G-d rewrote the message. This week, we explore the Ohr HaChaim’s stunning commentary on how G-d transforms even twisted intentions into blessings. A donkey speaks, a prophet’s eye opens, and we learn: words carry power, but purpose carries more.
