Rabbi Dr. David S. Stern Speaks

An Historical, yet timeless collection of insights on the weekly Parsha, written by Rabbi Dr. David S. Stern in the early 1930's These parsha thoughts were read aloud by a member of the shul in each of of the Young Israel branches, in lieu of a Shabbos morning sermon. Individual branches did not have their own Rabbi back then, and so Rabbi Stern became the Rabbi for them all. A Brilliant Torah scholar in his own right, Rabbi Stern was still able to inspire and motivate a young American audience on their own level and in their own language. With these insights, the listeners walked away with a good basic overview of the parsha, and many practical ways to apply the lessons of the Torah to their own lives. As you read these pages you will relive an era gone by, and at the same time glean many pearls of wisdom that are applicable even today in the twenty first century. Published in 2015
