At the end of the plague of frogs, Moshe Rabbeinu says that the frogs would remain only in the river. In this week’s “Oddities and Observations,” Dovid Taub asks if this means that the frogs currently inhabiting the Nile are part of the original Makkah, and if so, can this be used to combat antisemitism?
The “Commentary Kaleidoscope” for this week offers over 20 different ways that classic commentaries and Midrishim explain the interaction between fire and hail during Makkas Barad.
The “Parshah Poll” for this edition features real reader responses to the question “Which of this week’s plagues is the worst?”
