You get a work message and have to check an email immediately. Something was burning on the stove that needed attention. One of your kids dropped their cereal all over the floor and you had to clean it quickly.

Before any of this, you just did netilat yadayim in order to eat bread and got distracted. And you wonder: How quickly must you say the bracha on eating bread after washing your hands through netilat yadayim?

Join Rabbi Dovid Fink as he explores what kinds of interruptions are permitted, and which are not.

This week's short Dvar Torah:
In this week’s parsha, the Ma’or VaShemesh on Parshat Beha’alotecha develops two seemingly separate themes, the lighting of the Menorah and the inverted נו״ן surrounding “Vayehi Binso’a Ha’Aron” (“And it was when the Ark traveled”).

However, beneath the surface both are exploring the same spiritual question: how closeness to God is created, sustained, lost, and restored.
