Rabbi Ruditsky writes about the underlying concept of the ritual that is executed when a corpse is found lying in an open area. The key theme is the acknowledgment of social responsibility, for the person who is deceased, for the perpetrator of his/her death, and for the community who was not aware of the needs of the deceased.
In the attached article, Rabbi Axelrad compares and contrasts the relationship issues in this parashah to contemporary customs.
