Jewish lawyers of the world unite in celebrating this week’s parsha, where Moses instructs the people of Israel to appoint judges and law enforcement administrators in every city. “Justice, justice shall you pursue,” Moses explains, without corruption or favoritism to the rich or powerful.

Start this lighter Shabbat menu with a layered gorgeous appetizer using potato pancakes and colorful veggies for an elegant presentation.
