A wedding ceremony? Well, not exactly; but many sources in Chazal compare the events at Ma’amad Har Sinai to a marriage between God (the groom) and Am Yisrael (the bride).
[See for example the last Mishnah in Masechet Taanit!]
In this week’s shiur, as we study the numerous ambiguities in Shemot chapter 19, we attempt to explain the deeper meaning of this analogy, as well as the underlying reason for those ambiguities.
