Eikev in a Nutshell

The name of the Parshah, "Eikev," means "because," and it is found in Deuteronomy 7:12.

In the Parshah of Eikev (“Because”), Moses continues his closing address to the children of Israel, promising them that if they will fulfill the commandments (mitzvot) of the Torah, they will prosper in the Land they are about to conquer and settle in keeping with G‑d’s promise to their forefathers.
