Around the Shabbat Table

Covenant & Conversation | December 31, 2025
  1. Why would a king (and perhaps any kind of leader) need the law of writing a Torah scroll?
  2. Why is there a danger that too much humility will lead to shiflut (self-abasement)? How can we avoid this?
  3. How does placing God at the centre of our lives allow us to achieve humility?

These questions come from this week’s Family Edition to Rabbi Sacks’ Covenant & Conversation. For an interactive, multi-generational study, check out the full edition at www.RabbiSacks.org/covenant-conversation-family-edition/shoftim/the-greatness-of-humility/.
