Before accessing the excerpts, please review a word about copyright.

Are you more of an "I'll dive right in and figure it out" person, or a "Show Me How This Thing Works" person?  If the former, go right ahead and try the excerpts browers on the right side of this page and/or scroll through the excerpts that start below the following information -- although we still suggest reading the information first.  If you are the latter, click here for a video demonstrating the Excerpts Browser. Either way (or both), enjoy! 

This page is recommended for searches limited to specific Torah books, weekly portions (parshiot), chapters, verses, and/or sources (authors). For keyword and/or for exact phrase (including verse and source) searches of the entire excerpts database, we recommend using the Search Engine page.  For broadest results, use both pages and alternative search strategies. 

This page displays the full text of all or "sorted" (filtered) excerpts in the database.  Use the "Torah Verses" and/or "Excerpt Sources" browsers at the right to locate the excerpts associated with your desired Torah book, portion, chapter. verse, or author.  Or, simply scroll through the excerpts, using the "boxes" at the bottom of any page displaying excerpts to "jump" ahead or back. 

Also note that immediately below the chapter, verse, and keyword of each excerpt is a highlighted line comprised of multiple links.  Clicking on any of the links will limit (filter) the excerpts display to the selected category.  

Transcription of excerpts is incomplete.  For current status, please see "Transcribed Sources" on the Search Engine page.  To assist with completion, please see "Contributors" page.

NUM50 (Continued from [[GEN427]] Genesis 3:19 sweat BOROJMV 255). Our French sages picked the three biblical verses that make up the Temple priestly benediction: May Adonai bless and guard you; may Adonai glow with concern for you and be gracious to you; may Adonai pay special attention to you and grant you peace" [this and following two verses]. So we begin not with laws directing what we should do for God, or for others in God's name, but with a sense of what God may do for us! Yes, we all can use as much divine help as we can get! Though we are right to expect much of ourselves, our efforts alone can't provide for everything. A quiet sense of our partnership with God empowers even as it humbles.
