A1 I'm struck by the description of a good land, where there is lots of water and fruit is growing on its own all over the place. This is obviously contrasting with the desert which has neither, but maybe it is also contrasting with Egypt, a place with river-flood irrigated agriculture. #ParshaChat

It is harvest season here, which feels especially appropriate in the context of this parsha. Stone fruit, berries, melons, greens, corn, tomatoes ... all the fresh produce, amazingly perfectly ripe and nutritious as at no other time of year. Truly blessings. #ParshaChat
