Have a Cow

Categories: Chukat, Parsha

A WEEKLY TORAH THOUGHT FROM RABBI MORDY In this week’s Torah portion, Parshas Chukas, we learn about the Red Heifer, the elusive “Red Cow,” which, without getting into too many details, has the ability through its slaughter to purify the otherwise ritually impure.
