1. Small but fundamental passukBar Kapppara asked the following question: What is a small passuk upon which all of the fundamentals of the Torah depend? He answered: ארחתך יישר והוא דעהו דרכך בכל –In all your ways you must know Him, and He will straighten your paths. Rava explained that “In all your ways” includes even one engaged in a transgression. This passuk teaches that there are times when Hashem’s honor demands that one perform a transgression. - (An example of this is when Eliyahu Hanavi brought offerings outside the Beis Hamikdashon Har HaCarmel in the incident with the prophets of Ba’al even though sacrificing outside of the Beis haMikdash is a Torah prohibition). 2. Receiving Torah dailyIt was taught in a Baraisa that when the Rabbis entered Kerem beYavneh they each opened uptheir derasha with words in honor of their hosts that housed them )אכסניא בכבוד פותחין .)Rebbe Yehuda further opened up his derasha focusing on honoring those who learn Torah with the following passuk, “לעם נהיית הזה היום ישראל ושמע הסכת – “Pay heed and listen, Yisroel, on this day you became a nation.” How does one make sense of this passuk that implies that that the Torah was given on that day, when in fact it was given Torah forty years earlier?Rebbe Yehuda answers that the passuk is coming to teach you that on each an every day the Torah should be as dear to those that study it as on the day it was given on Har Sinai. 3. Learning with othersThe Gemara says that the word "הסכת"teaches – בתורה ועסקו כתות כתות עשו –that one must form groups (asu kitos) and engage in Torah learning because the Torah is only acquired through learning with others. This is in accordance with Rebbe Yossi b’Rebbe Chaninah who said: 1. There will be as sword against those who sit alone and learn Torah. 2. They will become foolish and make mistakes in judgment3. They will also come to sin. Siman – Boys on SegwaysThe Yeshiva Ketana boys sped to the Beis Midrash on their Segways taking every type of straight path, eager to learn Torah as if it was just given that day and making sure to get the most by learning in
