  In this week's episode, we look at the challenge people have in relating to the key elements of Rosh Hashana. Rosh Hashana is the day of Judgement. People are definitely challenged to seriously relate to this. How broad is this challenge? Does it affect most of the religious world? What tools do we have to overcome this challenge?  You can now help Rabbi Wittenstien  create new and original content via our non profit  'The Jewish History and Tanach Foundation'.  Your support and partnership is greatly appreciated.

Completeness of Torah

Completeness of Torah

2026-08-2055:16

In this week's episode, we take a closer look at the issue of completeness of a sugya. Are there places in Tanach that broader knowledge of Shas will help us understand the stories better?  Similarly, we examine the issue of are there places in Torah which we don't have enough information and understanding to pasken? How thoroughly are the laws of war discussed? Are there war related issues that we don't really have enough information and knowledge to pasken?  You can now help Rabbi Wittenstien  create new and original content via our non profit  'The Jewish History and Tanach Foundation'.  Your support and partnership is greatly appreciated.

In this week's episode, we take a deeper look at how to understand the sugya of learning Tanach. For example, how should Rashi in Shir HaShirim be classified? Similarly, how difficult is it to properly understand the development of the harder Sefarim in Tanach, like Yeshaya and Yirmiyahu? Similarly, we start looking at the issue of completeness of a sugya? How significant is it to have a full grasp of a sugya? Are there places where we should suspect the sugya is incomplete?  This week's podcast is dedicated by Mr Zvi Goelman לעילוי נשמת אביו חנוך בן זאב צבי You can now help Rabbi Wittenstien  create new and original content via our non profit  'The Jewish History and Tanach Foundation'.  Your support and partnership is greatly appreciated.
