Din & Daf: Conceptual Analysis of Halakha Through Case Study with Dr. Elana Stein Hain
The Gemara mentions the concept of אין עניות במקום עשירות - there is no poverty in a place of wealth - in context of the Mikdash (Temple). This generally means that it is better to spend more money than to be thrifty when it comes to the Mikdash. This is is fascinating concept and raises questions about the value of spending - and also the value of saving - in Jewish life. What are its implications for Jewish life today?
