Beshalach 5778 - Tropeful is Back!

This week, we talk about endings in the Torah, as we celebrate ending the second book of the Torah, the Book of Exodus, with Parashat Pekudei. Chazak, Chazak, v’Nitchazeik!

This week, we are taking a special look at one prominent element that is in this week’s Haftarah (Sephardic tradition - Isaiah 6:1-13; Ashkenazic tradition - Isaiah 6:1-7:6, 9:5-6). Find the text here. Yitro 5782 Cantor David Reinwald The Torah portion for Parashat Yitro is also one of the most significant moments to look at from a tropeful perspective. I discussed many of these enlightening perspectives in the past which you can find in the episode for Yitro 5777.

Once again, this week, we take a look at how the trope delineates the interrogative. A question and then an answer.

It is the last Torah portion of 2021 or the first of 2022 … you decide! The focus this week is on the trope’s connection to Moses’ questioning of his abilities and his self-consciousness. (And I’m glad to be reviving the podcast!)

Tropeful is back (again)! This time, I am starting fresh with a Taste of Tropeful (about 5 mins of insights per episode). We can do this! Be Tropeful.

What’s in a name? How does trope connect to names to empower our understanding? The answer lies within. Find the texts discussed at these links: The end of Parashat Bereisheet discussed begins here (move to the 7th aliyah to reach the end of the portion) and Parashat Noach can be found here. Noach 5779 Cantor David Reinwald

As we begin the Torah anew this year, I present a flashback to my very first episode of Tropeful on this week’s parashah. I went back and relistened to this episode and found it a refreshing and insightful throwback! :) In this new year, may you be Tropeful.

We explore how simple and deliberate trope can make an important statement in this week's Haftarah.  Find the text discussed here.  Terumah 5778

We focus on parallels found in this week's Haftarah portion, found in the Song of Deborah.
