How do life’s transitions invite spiritual renewal?

In this episode, Zvi Hirschfield and Rabbanit Nechama Goldman Barash explore the cycles of tumah (impurity) and taharah (purity) in Tazria-Metzora. They discuss how life experiences like birth, intimacy, and death naturally create distance—and how Torah invites us to return with renewal and deeper connection, both with God and with each other.

Featuring
Rabbanit Nechama Goldman Barash – Pardes Faculty
Zvi Hirschfield – Pardes Faculty and Host of Pardes from Jerusalem
