Description
Today’s Talmud page, Sotah 21, shares a parable of a man walking in the dark unsure of where he is and what is out there that can hurt him. The rabbis explore how mitzvot and Torah can serve as a light to help him find his way. Steven Spielberg and Tony Kushner also explore this idea in their film Lincoln. What did Americas sixteenth president think about relying too heavily on a compass? Listen and find out.
