Chabad.org on Parshat Eikev

The Parshah section of the Chabad.org website has a variety or resources to assist you in your weekly parshah study. There is a very short summary, a lengthier summary, the Judaica press translation of the text of the parshah, with or without Rashi's commentary in a parallel column, and also various articles and other features focused on the parshah. The following is from the parshah-in-depth section:

The Lubavitcher Rebbe says: Our commitment to Torah should be such that it permeates us entirely, so that also our heel -- the lowest and the least sensitive part of the person -- "hearkens to these laws, observes them and does them." In other words, our relationship with G-d should not be confined to the holy days of the year, or to certain "holy" hours we devote to prayer and study, but should also embrace our everyday activities. Indeed, this "lowly" and "spiritually insensitive" part of our life is the foundation of our relationship with G-d, in the same way that the heel is the base upon which the entire body stands and moves.

Note for Gentiles: The "parshah" is the weekly Torah reading. The Pentatuech is divided up so that it can be completed in one year. We are currently in the third week of Devarim (Deuteronomy).
