Teaching our children, Part II

Hi,

"'And you shall repeat [or: teach] it to your children' - These explicit mitzvot have already been hinted. Since He instructed us in the mitzvot, 'An eternal law for your generations,' 'Between Me and the Jewish people, an eternal sign,' 'This is My covenant you shall guard, between Me and you and your children after you,' we are instructed that our children should know the mitzvot.

"And how will they know the mitzvot, if we don't teach them?"

(Ramban to Devarim 6:7)

Have a great day,
Mordechai
