5779 — Masei: A New Vision for a New Generation

Posted by Nechama Goldman Barash on July 28, 2019
Topics: Pardes from Jerusalem, Torah, Bamidbar (Numbers), Massei

In this podcast, Nechama Goldman Barash compares stories from the beginning of the book of Numbers with two stories at the end the book as Moses begins to bid farewell to the nation. Moses emerges as the consummate leader that he is as these stories, which could be perceived as rebellion, in fact reflect the new visions of the new generation who are seeking to hear the word of God even as they ask the questions that have never been asked.
