Mishlei 25:11 - Golden "Apples" in Silver Filigree (Part 4)

Mishlei 25:11 - Golden "Apples" in Silver Filigree (Part 4)

תַּפּוּחֵי זָהָב בְּמַשְׂכִּיּוֹת כָּסֶף דָּבָר דָּבֻר עַל אׇפְנָיו

Length: 34 minutes
Synopsis: This morning (12/18/25), in our Morning Mishlei shiur, we spent one more day on this fundamental pasuk. We began with Metzudas David who (ironically!) we understood through the lens of the Rambam in the hakdamah of the Moreh (albeit different part). After going down a little rabbit hole about Chanukah, we did a quick overview of Saadia Gaon's commentary, just to get the flavor, then learned Ralbag and Malbim. I'm sure there's a lot more to cover in this pasuk, but that'll have to wait until next time.
