Mishlei 17:3 - The Crucible of the Heart
מַצְרֵף לַכֶּסֶף וְכוּר לַזָּהָב וּבֹחֵן לִבּוֹת יְיָ:
Length: 1 hour 31 minutes
Synopsis: This evening (9/29/25), in our Monday Night Mishlei shiur, we took up another pasuk that formed a core part of my high school curriculum. Like the past two weeks, this made me worried that we wouldn't discover any new ideas. And, like the last two weeks, I was pleasantly surprised! After raising 17 questions on the pasuk, we came up with four theories of our own, then learned three explanations from the meforshim. Many of these happened to be relevant to the period of Aseres Ymei Teshuvah and the upcoming Yom ha'Kippurim. So if you're looking for some Mishlei to get you ready for the ultimate "apex of atonement" (Rambam - Hilchos Teshuvah 2:6), be sure to check out this shiur!
