10 Minutes of Torah

10 Minutes of Torah

Who among us is so busy that he cannot spend 10 minutes a day in the study of a Jewish text?  Just 10 minutes?  Such a committment would enable us to meet our Jewish obligation to make Jewish study a fixed occurrence.  If we make time to answer our cell phones a dozen times a day and to check our email five times an hour, surely we can find 10 minutes to contemplate sacred words that nourish the soul.
