In this episode of The Daily Derech, Rabbi Marcus Rubenstein explores Parashat Ki Tisa, Hilchot Chametz uMatzah, and the brit bein habetarim.

From Me’am Loez, he explains why God commands a census after the Golden Calf, framing it as a message that each person still counts even after transgression.

In Hilchot Chametz uMatzah, he outlines the laws of chametz sheavar alav Pesach and the difference between full chametz and mixtures after the holiday.

From Menorat HaMaor, he reflects on Avraham’s covenant and the promise that suffering will ultimately lead to redemption.
