Parashat Nitzavim is the eighth weekly Torah portion in Sefer Dvarim. It begins with Chapter 29, Verse 9, and concludes with Chapter 30, Verse 20.

Parshat Nitzavim is always read on the Shabbat before Rosh Hashanah. This portion marks the beginning of the series of the final four Torah portions: Nitzavim, Vayeilech, Ha'azinu, and Zot HaBerachah, which are also the four shortest portions in the Torah. In years when there is no Shabbat between Yom Kippur and Sukkot, Parshat Vayeilech is read together with it.

Satire, Israel-Gaza War

MUST WATCH: L.E. Staiman is the Jewish satirist we never knew we needed

L.E. Staiman entertains by blending humor with sharp, satirical commentary, often using absurdity to highlight real issues. His character Lyle Culpepper is a hilariously exaggerated persona of an "anti-Semitic lefty," poking fun at extreme views while exposing their flaws. Through Lyle’s antics, Staiman not only makes us laugh but also pushes us to think critically about antisemitism and misinformation.
