How to Study (Numbers 32)

The chapter can also be called “A Matter of Priorities” as we look examine the priorities of Gad and Rueben. It is a wonderful chapter to introduce the various techniques used in studying scripture. In this study we point out the importance of the repetitions, reversals, opening sentence, and word order as well as the priorities study takes in our life. We learn that study is one of the highest forms of worship we can offer G-d.
