Parashat Bechukotai – Opening Questions

  • To which commandments do the blessings and curses of Vayikra 26 refer?
  • How do these blessings and curses relate both to those in Devarim 28-29 and to the covenant of Shemot 24?
  • Why does Hashem say that even after the people confess their sins, He will react with redoubled punishment? Should not repentance bring atonement in its wake?
  • What is so significant about the commandment of Shemittah that its non-observance is singled out as the root cause of the nation's ultimate exile?
  • Why are men and women given different valuations (ערכים) for the purposes of a vow of persons?
