January 5, 2012 1:11 am at 1:11 am #1159821writersoulParticipantSefer Vayikra
Two fathers IN NEVIIM who either killed or nearly killed their sons. (There might be more but I’m just not thinking of it.) One of the ones I’m thinking of is a medrash connected to a story in neviim.
January 5, 2012 2:16 am at 2:16 am #1159822sam4321Participantwritersoul:Torat Kohanim,but close enough.
January 5, 2012 3:10 am at 3:10 am #1159823writersoulParticipantIsn’t it the same thing, for all practical purposes (unless you mean specifically the sections discussing kohanim)? I always learned that it was Vayikra.
January 5, 2012 5:22 pm at 5:22 pm #1159824sam4321ParticipantYou are correct that torat kohanim and vayikra are the same thing,but torat kohanim can refer to sifra which is halachic midrash which I was talking about.

January 6, 2012 3:25 pm at 3:25 pm #1159827bekitzurParticipantSure, I didn’t mean to exclude everyone else!
January 6, 2012 7:36 pm at 7:36 pm #1159828writersoulParticipantI could be thinking of something else, but I think that the king of Moav had the son of the king of Edom captive.
January 6, 2012 8:26 pm at 8:26 pm #1159829bekitzurParticipantcorrect
January 6, 2012 8:44 pm at 8:44 pm #1159830sam4321ParticipantThat is according to the pshat that Moav killed the king of Edom’s son and then he retaliated.
January 7, 2012 11:49 pm at 11:49 pm #1159831bekitzurParticipantWhat was the name of Yeravam’s son that got sick and died?
January 8, 2012 12:29 am at 12:29 am #1159832writersoulParticipantAviyah (not to be confused with Aviyam melech Tehudah!)
Why did he merit to be die a natural death, as opposed to being conquered by Ba’asha?
January 8, 2012 1:05 am at 1:05 am #1159833bekitzurParticipantbecause he allowed Bnei Yisrael to be aliyah l’regel.

January 9, 2012 9:52 pm at 9:52 pm #1159847bekitzurParticipantwritesoul:
