The Maggid of Melbourne: Names, Language and Clothing Revisited

Posted by Levi Cooper on July 12, 2016
Topics: The Maggid of Melbourne, Hasidut, Hasidic Works

In this podcast, Levi revisits the notion that redemption is dependent on retaining names, language, and clothing. This picks up a theme discussed in a previous podcast, adding two new perspectives.


The Maggid of Melbourne is an ongoing series by Rabbi Dr. Levi Cooper – teacher of Hasidut, community rabbi, lawyer, IDF reservist, father to six and native Australian – in which he shares some short Torah ideas on topics of current interest from his Pardes classroom, his research and from his shul in Zur Hadassa. To the Beit Midrash!
