Shnayim Yomi - Tzav - Rabbi Yehoshua Sova - DVAR TORAH

What’s said in this shiur

The opening of this shiur, in Rabbi Yehoshua Sova’s own words — taken from the captions, so names and Hebrew terms may be approximate.

We just like to conclude with this week's parsha, parsha Sav, where it talks about Maftir. Rashi ends off by telling us one of the last sukkahs in tells us that the Benei Aaron, the children of Aaron, shall I hit to Yemina Smale. They did not waver either right or left. They kept on to the straight and narrow, which fits in beautifully with the what the Rambam tells us in Hilchos Deos. The Rambam tells us Shvil Hazahav, the golden path, Derech Hamemutza, that a person goes in the middle. And it's very famous that Reb Dessler used to say, "Everyone in the world is walking on a tightrope." What does that mean? "Either the people to the right of you are fanatically crazy, and the people left of you are loony left. But me, I've got the balance. Only I have the balance, and I'm normal, as they call. And therefore, I'm walking the tightrope." And the Rambam is very quick to point out that is the best way for a person to approach life. You don't go too extreme to the right, being super duper religious that could hurt and offend
