This week, the popular YouTube channel Menorah delighted its viewers with Rabbi Kaminetsky’s treatment of the weekly chapter of Mishpatim, in which he shares insightful thoughts and lessons learned from the Torah text.
The video for this week’s chapter is called “What is allowed to ‘steal’ and what is not allowed?” and the Menorah Channel describes it as follows: “Can stealing be justified? The Torah forbids stealing, but there are times when it is not only permissible, but even necessary.
In this issue, Rav Shmuel Kaminetsky discusses what types of stealing exist and why the prohibition “thou shalt not steal” in the Ten Commandments applies to more than just money and possessions.
– Why is cheating in commerce also stealing?
– When can a woman “steal” from her husband for good?
– Is it possible to “steal” a person by engaging them in Torah study?
– And is it true that some knowledge belongs to all?
About complex moral dilemmas, the fine lines of permissibility and the power of honesty – in this issue!””.
