Beyond Good and Evil: Where Does Man Perceive God? with Rabbi Avie Walfish

This season of Turn it & Turn it is on the topic of: "Mitzvot"

Tractate Berachot’s concluding discussions of everyday liturgical performances emphasize the need to find God in all realms of experience, by reciting blessings over food and diverse phenomena. This contrasts starkly with parallel discussions in other Talmudic texts, such as Tosefta Berachot, which focus on seeking God through the daily performance of mitzvot. This class was dedicated in memory of Rifka Rosenwein, z”l.
