Achrei-Mot Kedoshim - 2020

Chevra, this week’s parsha is אַחֲרֵי מוֹת - קְדֹשִׁים (Achrei-Mot Kedoshim). The last section of the parsha this week talks about the holiness of kashrut. While the rules of kashrut can get extremely complex, but restricting ourselves, we indicate that we can override our lower yearnings do what Hashem commands. Some of the rules we follow are spelled out explicitely in the Torah, but many of them are things that the sages learned by reading between the lines.
