We also talked about these questions: ~What should you do when you don't know a word as you're reading? ~How is resurrection the greatest insurrection against Satan's regime? ~Hebrew has loads of synonyms for the five primary emotions! ~Is there a difference between "loving" and "being loving towards"? ~If love is the fulfillment of the law, why study the Torah?
