There are weeks when the Torah portion gently suggests an area of spiritual improvement. Then there is Ki Teitzei, which contains 74 mitzvot and reads as though Moshe suddenly realized he was running out of Deuteronomy and still had an alarming amount of material to cover.
War. Marriage. Divorce. Rebellious children. Lost property. Roof railings. Unpaid wages. Forbidden relationships. A mother bird. Amalek. Who may marry whom. Who may not marry whom. What happens when marriage goes wrong. Frankly, all it lacks is a seven-minute timer and a message saying, YOUR NEXT DATE IS READY.
Which brings me, inevitably, to CoronaCrush.
I did it again.
For those unfamiliar with CoronaCrush, it is virtual Jewish speed dating, presumably invented by people who looked at ordinary Jewish dating and thought: This isn’t stressful enough. Could we add a countdown clock?
