Today on Table Talk with BBYOInsider we are giving an in-depth look at this week’s parsha—Parsha Chukat—as part of the Simchat Torah Challenge.
Parashat Hukat opens with one of the most confusing mitzvah in the Torah, the Law of the Red Haifa.
It's described as a hock, a commandment that doesn't come with a clear explanation.
And that's uncomfortable because we like reasons.
We want things to make sense.
But Hukat starts by reminding us that faith doesn't always mean understanding.
It sometimes means acting, even when we don't get it.
