This series of shiurim will cover various topics in Tanach in depth. We will offer a combination of the best in modern academic scholarship and literary analysis along side classic meforshim and Midrashim. I will attempt to include my own interpretations in each series and offer a macro-view of what messages and insights a given portion of Tanach may be conveying. Bonus points for catching the pop-culture references ;)

The (Second) Book of Samuel: chapter 20

Welcome to 2 Samuel, Shmuel part Bet, chapter twenty

Episode 47: The Secret Life of Amasa

Previously we saw the return of the king, where David meets again with many of the cast of characters he encountered when he had to flee before Avshalom. We spoke about his misjudgement with Mephiboshet and Tzibah and at the end we saw that David’s efforts to reunite the nation, by appointing Amasa as the head of his army, were insufficient to prevent the beginnings of internal strife. The tribes are once again acting tribal, with bickering over who gets to be closer to the king being an example of the simmering unrest that will erupt into another rebellion in this chapter.
