Rabbi Shlomo Riskin
Parshat Pinchas
One of the most fascinating aspects of the entire Torah is the portion which deals with the case of the daughters of Tzlophad (Numbers, Chapter 27), an incident considered of such significance that it is repeated at the conclusion of the Book of Numbers as well (ibid., 36). What do we learn from these special women? Perhaps the even earlier question must be, is it indeed permissible for men to learn Torah from women in the first place?
