Description

This week’s episode with Rabbanit Surale Rosen closes our series on the lived experience of Torah observance.The conversation begins with an idea rooted in our parsha regarding an ethic that may have preceded the official giving of Torah and continues on to explore some of the tensions between Halakhic life and secular sensibilities both in Israel and abroad.  When does applying a halakhic frame feel absurd?  How might broadening the purview of halakha actually help make its observance more organic?

This week’s episode has been sponsored in memory of Vita Rachel bat Yaacov Bradfield z”l.

Our upcoming Bamidbar series will focus on issues of leadership–Chazak, Chazak, V’nitchazek!
