This Shabbat is spelled in english in three different ways: Ki Teze, Kiteze and Ki Teizei.

Commentary by Rabbi Chaim Richman, The Temple Institute, Jerusalem:
“Remember what Amalek did to you along the way as you came out of Egypt.” (Deuteronomy 25:19) G-d wants us to be on fire in the way we serve Him, but Amalek, the enemy of G-d, wants to “cool” us off, enticing us to trade in our passion for walking in G-d’s way, with complacency with doing the bare minimum – a situation which truly spells disaster. – “I pray that we should never be to cool, we should always be on fire for the service of G-d”:

Shabbat Shalom

Kiteze or Ki Tetze, means “When you go forth” … and Rabbi David L. Locketz of Bet Shalom Congregation gets it right to the very point, beginning with the words: “As we continue our journey through the Book of Deuteronomy”… maybe we should listen to him just for this 50 seconds:

Shabbat Shalom
