There are mitzvos that we do every day like tzitzis or tefillin; there are mitzvos we do every week like kiddush and Shabbos; there are mitzvos we do every month and every year, like the holidays. There are even mitzvos that we get to do just once in our lives! But did you ever hear of a mitzva that was fulfilled just one time in history? In parshas Ki Sisa (30:23-25) it tells of a mitzva like this! • Full Article

Children learn to be sad from their parents and the “mature” world that they become exposed to.” • Full Article
