    • Judaism

Shiur from Rabbi Elimelech Kohn Ztl on פרשת אמור, continuing on the topic of Hashgacha Pratis begun in Parshas תזריע-מצורע. 
Discussed:  

R' Shamshon Refael Hirsch explains why the Torah has several Mitzvos concerning mother and baby animals.  
The Chinuch writes that the Mitzva אותו ואת בנו (the prohibition to slaughter mother and child on one day) generates an awareness of divine providence and should cause one to be more conscious of Hashgacha Pratis.  
The Orach Chaim in Parshas Vayeshev writes that man has free choice and therefore is able to affect other people, even against Hashem's divine plan.
