Parashat Ki Tetze – Opening Questions

  • What is the purpose of all the details in the procedure for dealing with a captive woman? Are they meant to degrade or respect the woman, and with what ultimate goal?
  • What was so unique about Amalek's attack that it engendered such a harsh decree of total annihilation?
  • Does the Torah believe in bodily mutilation as punishment for assault as might be inferred from the command, "וְקַצֹּתָה אֶת כַּפָּהּ"?
