Show Notes
Today’s Talmud page, Nedarim 16, raises one of Judaism's most central questions: Do we keep the Mitzvot, or commandments, because they're beneficial to us, or simply because we were told? Rabbi Lauren Tuchman joins us to offer an unorthodox and insightful perspective. How important is kavanah, or intentionality, when we do anything Jewish? Listen and find out.
