The Proper Unit, Or, How To Smash The Gentilarchy
•
Rabbi Shnayor Burton and Mikey Stone
The Torah mandates that we count Jews in half-units. It's a cliche to assert that as individual selves, we are incomplete and lacking, but this week we strip away the platitudes, and show how the appropriate absorption of the self into the whole of Israel, and the message of the Half-Shekel, are fundamental to Torah learning, the Holy Land, and the World to Come.
