Parshat Vayikra

The first pasuk teaches us about each of the times Hashem spoke to Moshe Rabeinu, and perhaps suggests a moral message for our own interpersonal communication.

Parshat Pekudei

What does the first pasuk repeat the words  "hamishkan mishkan haedut," when it could have invoked either of those expressions?

Parshat Vayakhel

To state that the start of the parsha follows on the end of the previous one is obvious--why does Rashi do so?

Parshat Yitro

Why does Rashi detail specific events that Yitro "heard," when the Torah itself tells us that he heard "everything…"?

Parshat Beshalach

Why does Rashi tell us the direct translation of the words v'lo nacham, and then explains the words derekh eretz plishtim by signaling that he is omitting any of the many midrashim on the subject?
