Tom's Talmud Tisch: , Masechet Sotah, Daf 34,b This Gemara mini-series focuses on the Scriptural Story of the Sin of the Spies. The baffling biblical narrative of the Scouts appointed by Moses to reconnoiter Canaan is a shameful yet important part of our national saga. In-depth study of the verses reveals the true backstory, enabling us to learn the lessons of history and avoid repeating their mistakes today! Part One, opens as we seek an understanding of the origins of this most unusual Divine commandment, logically proving it couldn't have been initiated by G-d, but rather a big decision Moses would have to make on his own. Was the mission doomed to fail from the get-go, or did the system malfunction? Our Sages then dig into the language used to uncover unsavory motives. By employing a fascinating biblical cross reference, the truth is embarrassingly laid bare. Finally, we are introduced to historic decoding of the secret messages encrypted into the IDs of the selected scouts -- revealing some shocking information! This is the first Episode of a two-part mini study-series entitled SPIES IN DISGUISE.
