Do you know what the Torah is referring to when it says, “You must not partake of
it, in order that it may go well with you and with your descendants to come, for you will be doing what is right in the sight of the Lord”? Ramaz eighth grader Avi Flatto-Katz knows! And as this year’s national middle school Chidon HaTanach winner, he knows much more than the answer is “blood.”
After competing among 500 contestants from over 80 schools across the country, Avi will be among four American contestants in Israel next year, representing the United States in next year’s international bible competition. He also won last year when he was a seventh grader.
