Bearing the Burden (6.6.38)

Everyone is going through something. Everyone has difficulties in life. That is the human condition. It is also all by design. But we are instructed to empathize with others in whatever challenge they may be undergoing. We are supposed to help them bear their burden. We are supposed to identify with their pain, validate it, and try to do whatever we can to suffer alongside them. This quality is the mark of the giants of our history, and it is also the Attribute of God that we are shown repeatedly. In this Ethics Podcast we learn how it is also a means through which we can acquire that that we cherish more than anything else: a connection with the Almighty and His holy Torah.
