The daughters of Tzelofchad request and receive new laws regarding inheritance. God instructs Moses to prepare Joshua for leadership, and God describes sacrifices brought daily and on special occasions.

The book club will meet via Zoom on Wednesday, July 20, at 7 p.m. The group is reading “Wedding in Brownsville” by Isaac Bashevis Singer. The story takes place in 1976 Brooklyn.
