NACH 16 – Shmuel 2 – Lesson 3 (Clip) – Shunning Non-Jewish Styles

Speaker: Rabbi Zvi Aryeh Rosenfeld z”l.
Shmuel 2 – Perek 10. To disgrace the emissaries of Dovid HaMelech, the son of Ammon orders that their beards should be half shaven off. Here Rabbi Rosenfeld z”l comments on the importance of not following the styles of non-Jewish culture, particularly citing the Torah tradition against allowing the hair on the top and back of a man’s head to grow long.
