Get StartedAUGUST 30, 2022 - Shoftim: How To Lead a Life Worth Living (Part 27 of 47)
Season One of Into the Verse, Exclusive Content for our Premium Subscribers
How can we live a meaningful life? In this episode of Into the Verse, Rabbi Fohrman finds an answer in an unlikely section of Parshat Shoftim: the Israelites’ pre-battle protocols, when the officers exempt various soldiers from fighting. Join Rabbi Fohrman as he explores these military exemptions, their fascinating parallels to elsewhere in the Torah, and what they show us about leading a life worth living.
