Of Talking Donkeys and Miracles - Parashat Chukat-Balak


It's a double portion this week (Chukat-Balak), but I am choosing to focus my remarks on the passage from Parashat Balak in which, lo and behold, we encounter a talking donkey!

What is a miracle? How can this fanciful story help us to think deeply about the nature of miracles in nature and in our lives?

Wishing you a week of deep consideration,
Rabbi Jonathan Blake
