Mishlei 17:8 - The Charm of a Bribe
אֶבֶן חֵן הַשֹּׁחַד בְּעֵינֵי בְעָלָיו, אֶל כׇּל אֲשֶׁר יִפְנֶה יַשְׂכִּיל:
Length: 1 hour 36 minutes
Synopsis: This evening (11/24/25), in our Monday Night Mishlei shiur, we learned a pasuk I've taught dozens of times. Despite its atypical structure, I consider this to be an excellent "starter pasuk" for people new to Mishlei. I knew we'd come up with great ideas. My only question was how many NEW insights we'd gain. Thank God, we came away with several! The analysis, the insights, and the examples were all great, and I'm confident that if we had more time, we'd learn even more. I guess that'll have to wait until next time!
