Mishlei 16:9 - Man Plans and Hashem ... Prepares Footsteps?
לֵב אָדָם יְחַשֵּׁב דַּרְכּוֹ וַי"י יָכִין צַעֲדוֹ:
Length: 1 hour 39 minutes
Synopsis: This evening (9/23/24), in our Monday Night Mishlei shiur, we ended up having a masterclass on how to avoid learning cliché ideas from pesukim that seem like clichés. I was concerned this might happen, especially since this is the third pasuk in this chapter we've encountered along these lines, but we managed to develop several nuanced ideas and subtle Mishleic techniques. The meforshim helped us even more! If you listen to this one, I REALLY encourage you to pause the recording before we start giving answers and see what you come up with on your own.
