Description

In today’s session, Rabbi Goldberg delves into the significance of listening—emphasized through the Hebrew word "Shma"—which transcends mere hearing to encompass understanding and comprehension. He emphasizes the distinct yet complementary roles of maternal and paternal influences in Jewish tradition, and how both contribute to personal growth and spirituality. This talk not only highlights the spiritual message of the Ramban's letter but also draws on the broader teachings of the Torah and Talmud to underscore the importance of truly listening to grow and connect with one's faith. Whether discussing the nuances of listening as a transformative practice or pondering the symbolic meanings behind the words of the Ramban, Rabbi Goldberg invites listeners to engage deeply, reflect, and embrace the path of listening as a cornerstone of learning and spiritual development.
