"Reb Zalman zt”l taught that one of the ways to write an innovative drash is to “dilate” a key word from the Hebrew text or the theme of a holiday, and then see what the word wants to reveal to you. By “dilate” he meant revealing the etymological root of a particular word pertaining to the theme of the holiday, and there you’ll find a metaphor. Once you uncover the metaphor a lot of fresh ideas will come to you as you write the drash."

CW: Pride month, Jewish text study
I was honored to be the speaker yesterday for my synagogue’s annual Pride Shabbat. Writing this was a joy, and speaking these words to my congregation was an incredible moment. @Rob_T_Firefly suggested that it might be worth sharing to a broader audience - and his suggestions are always worth taking. #PrideShabbat #DvarTorah #Visibility #Behaalotekha #Judaism #Torah #GrammarNerd #Jewniverse #Mazeldon https://drive.google.com/file/d/1fHmvUl_Orr1NlgvD8LOTSTOs6gMaSDRA
