Description

This episode is a conversation with Rabbi Ben Shalva. 
D'varim is the beginning of Deuteronomy: the book of (Moses's) words. How does Moses's final act - an act of creating words - teach us about legacy, about memory, and about owning our own traditions?
Plus, we talk about Jewish camp, about the place of mindfulness and yoga in Judaism, about books and more.
