Heading For Nitzavim Vayeilech

לפרשת נצבים וילך

For Parshas Nitzavim-Vayeilech.

This is the heading that introduces the divrei Torah of the Sfas Emes on the combined sidros of Nitzavim and Vayeilech.

Summary: This line serves as the heading marking the beginning of the Sfas Emes's teachings on the combined parshiyos of Nitzavim and Vayeilech. It identifies the subject matter that follows rather than presenting a self-contained idea. These two sidros are customarily read together and stand at the close of the Torah's narrative to Bnei Yisrael before the petirah of Moshe Rabbeinu. The heading thus sets the stage for the divrei Torah to come.
