Mayanot Moment: Tetzaveh (3:52)
The High Priest wears a headband that covers the forehead which covers the frontal lobe. Rabbi Meir Levinger shows how modern scientific knowledge of the brain agrees with our ancient Torah traditions. The take away of this short Torah thought is that chassidus is about one liners to keep us going for the whole day.
