Mystery of Missing Name Remains Unsolved

More than 3,300 years after Moshe’s name went missing from the Torah portion of Tetzaveh, investigators are still scratching their heads regarding its whereabouts. Detectives point to several suspicious circumstances, including the fact that this portion is always read close to the 7th of Adar, which is both the birthday and Yahrtseit (anniversary of the passing) of the great leader.

“Moshe’s name is missing, and we are extremely baffled, bewildered, confounded, mystified, perplexed, and a bunch of other adjectives,” commented chief investigator Dr. Dovid Doresh. “If you have any information or leads, please submit it to your local Torah journal or contact the staff of ‘The Parsha Post’.”
