Mishlei 16:14 - Calming an Angry King

חֲמַת מֶלֶךְ מַלְאֲכֵי מָוֶת, וְאִישׁ חָכָם יְכַפְּרֶנָּה:

Length: 1 hour 28 minutes
Synopsis: This evening (11/11/24), in our Monday Night Mishlei shiur, we learned another pasuk about kings. This one also seemed simple, but we ended up stumbling upon some surprising approaches - especially when we saw meforshim who applied this pasuk to the King of kings! And, not surprisingly - given the recent election - we were able to apply it to our upcoming 47th president as well.

Mishlei 15:7 - The Lips of the Wise vs. the Heart of Fools (Part 2)

שִׂפְתֵי חֲכָמִים יְזָרוּ דָעַת וְלֵב כְּסִילִים לֹא כֵן:

Length: 47 minutes
Synopsis: This morning (11/7/24), in our morning Mishlei shiur, we reviewed and refined yesterday's approaches, which translated יזרו as "spread" or "scatter." Today we focused on two other translations: "winnow" and "crown." Not only did we come up with some nice ideas, but we unwittingly stumbled upon a Grand Theory of how Mishlei uses terms for speech (e.g. lips, mouth, tongue, etc.). I'm happy with the ideas we learned from this pasuk, but even happier about that Grand Theory!

Length: 46 minutes
Synopsis: This morning (11/6/24), in our morning Mishlei shiur, we learned a "classic" sounding Mishlei pasuk about chachamim, ksilim, speech, and knowledge. The pasuk proved to be surprisingly rich in questions and we developed three approaches based on one of the two translations. Tomorrow, we'll see if we come up with our own approaches based on the other translation, and then we'll delve into the meforshim.
