In Parshas Balak, Hashem makes a donkey speak, one of the strangest miracles in the entire Torah.

Parashat Balak: What It Really Means to Show Up as a Mensch
In this shiur on Parshas Balak, Rav Dov Ber Cohen teaches the concept of Tzuras Ha'adam — the form of a human being — as the foundation of all avodah.

Bilam says the same sentence twice in Parshas Balak: even a house full of silver and gold, I can't go against Hashem. The first time it ends with "small or big." The second time it ends with "good or bad." Why the change? Between the two, a donkey speaks and a curse turns into a blessing. The answe…
