*Special Episode* Shavuot 5785
This week’s episode of the One Pasuk Podcast is generously sponsored by Erica & Robert Klein, my mother and father in law in commemoration of the yahrzeit of their precious granddaughter, Chana Tova, daughter of Rabbi Chaim and Shoshana Poupko. She was a bright shining burst of light, who taught us all that the quality of our time on this earth is not dependent upon its length. Her spirit, smile, and courage will always be remembered by us. We pray that Hashem continue to watch over her Neshama.
Megilat Rut
וַתֹּאמֶר רוּת אַל־תִּפְגְּעִי־בִי לְעׇזְבֵךְ לָשׁוּב מֵאַחֲרָיִךְ כִּי אֶל־אֲשֶׁר תֵּלְכִי אֵלֵךְ וּבַאֲשֶׁר תָּלִינִי אָלִין עַמֵּךְ עַמִּי וֵאלֹהַיִךְ אֱלֹהָי׃
But Ruth replied, “Do not urge me to leave you, to turn back and not follow you. For wherever you go, I will go; wherever you lodge, I will lodge; your people shall be my people, and your God my God.
