2-Minute Minchat Chinuch
Each week, a brief piece of torah from the minchat chinuch on a mitzvah related to the parsha, usually under 3 minutes in length.
The Minchat Chinuch was published in the 19th century by Rabbi Yoseph Babad. It contains the authors thoughts and summaries of each of the 613 mitzvot, arranged in the order of the weekly parsha. It was written in the form of a commentary to the Sefer Hachinuch, a sefer from the rishonic era, but the Minchat Chinuch often digresses to discuss matters not present in the Sefer Hachinuch.
