Show Notes
Jews have always given tzedaka, charity, in far greater proportions than every other culture. Why is this so? Why should any person, or any Jew, give hard earned money to others who have less? This podcast will examine these questions and show how Jewish tzedaka is different from Christian charity. It will also examine one feature Jewish giving that makes it unique among all 613 commandments.
