Behar-Bechukotai: What is Enough?
Welcome to Shabbat Moment, a text study series with Yael Shy, from our friends at the Institute for Jewish Spirituality. Every week we share Yael’s Torah text study, mindfulness practice tips, and discussion questions for you to reflect + share with others at your Shabbat table.

This week’s Torah portion is Behar-Bechukotai: What is Enough?
What is enough? When do I have enough? When am I enough?
This week’s Torah portion includes laws that try to show us that having “enough” is not a quantifiable number or amount but a state of heart and mind. We can choose whether we want to view the world through a mentality based on scarcity or one based on sufficiency.
