What does it really mean to “see” God’s presence in everyday life?

In this episode, Zvi Hirschfield and Yiscah Smith explore Parshat Re’eh through Moshe’s opening command, “See.” Drawing on the Malbim, Hasidic thought, Rabbi Alan Lew, and the prophet Amos, they examine how mitzvot become opportunities to cultivate awareness of God’s presence rather than mere religious obligation, inviting us to approach Jewish life with greater consciousness, purpose, and spiritual depth.
