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.

DEUTERONOMY | 28:58 Name — DEUT1554 (Continued from [[LEV379]] Leviticus 19:...

DEUT1554 (Continued from [[LEV379]] Leviticus 19:14 curse GATES 225-7). Our Sages said (Shevuos 35a) that one who curses his fellowman or himself with Hashem's Name is punishable with lashes. Furthermore, his punishment administered by Heaven is very severe, as the pesukim say [this and next verse]; [Although the Gemara in Temurah (3b) states that "plagues" means the punishment of lashes administered by beis din, Rabbeinu Yonah appears to include the simple meaning of the word as well, which implies Heavenly punishment (Zeh Hasha'ar). Alternatively, he could be referring to the end of the pasuk, "...and severe and persistent illnesses."]. Our Sages, z"l, explained (Temurah 3b) that this pasuk is referring to one who curses another individual or himself using Hashem's Name.
