Dvar Torah: Hashem’s True Beloved
In this weeks parsha, parshas Ki Teitzei, the Torah states that if a man had two wives, one is beloved and the other one is not (so) beloved. When it comes to give over his inheritance, he must give a double portion to his first born son, even if that son is the son of the wife whom he isn’t on the best of terms. And it is forbidden to play favoritism and give the first born of the beloved wife, the rights of the firstborn.
