How do we rebuild a broken world without simply recreating the past?

In this episode, Zvi Hirschfield and Rabbi Leon Morris explore Parshat Noach as a story not just of destruction, but of renewal. They discuss God’s recalibration of expectations after the flood, the new covenant symbolized by the rainbow, and Noah’s struggle to rebuild a broken world.
