It is said in the name of Rabbi Shalom Dov Ber of Lubavitch (the fifth Lubavitcher Rebbe), that there are three progressive levels in the way something can be heard:Of the many Biblical heroes, few, if any, are honored with a Parsha named after themselves, not even Avraham or Moshe. This of course, makes Yisro all the more unique.
A) To hear with one's ears – listen. B) To hear with the mind – comprehend. C) To hear with all 248 limbs of the body – to sense the subject matter throughout one's entire being. (Told in the name of Reb Mendel Futerfass)

1. In this week’s Torah portion the Jewish people stand at Har Sinai (Mount Sinai) amidst thunder and lightning and receive the Ten Commandments from Hashem (G-d).
The Ten Commandments begin by saying, “Va’ye’da’ber Elokim Es Kol Hadvarim Ha’e’lah Lay’more - G-d spoke all these words, to say (“Lay’more”)”.
2. The Rebbe now questions this:
The word “Lay’more – To say” is used everywhere else in the Torah when Hashem tells Moshe Rabbeinu (Moses our teacher) something in private and then instructs Moshe to repeat it over to the public. Here however, when the whole Jewish nation was standing at Har Sinai and hearing the Ten Commandments just like Moshe Rabbeinu, why does the Torah say, “G-d spoke all these words, to say (“Lay’more”)”?

COLLEGE STATION, TX — The freedom that college offers is exhilarating. Despite the occasional laundry mishaps, such as when that pesky red sock made a load of whites look like Barbie's spring wardrobe. College is not for the faint of heart: sometimes that hint of homesickness is far from unfamiliar. When a little cough turns into a debilitating flu, it is cause for even the most independent students to cry for mommy.
