Thanks for listening to the Torah of Life podcast, your home for transformational wisdom from a Jewish lens.
Rules. There are so many of them. Shouldn't life be easier and without so many rules? Shouldn't religion be easier without so many rules?
Why is it so hard to know which rules to follow and which ones to change? And why do we even need rules to begin with.
In Ekev, this week's Torah reading, Moses tells the people that if they just follow God's commandments, all will be well for them. Was that really true? And can it still be true today?
Listen to today's episode and tell me what you think. Is it enough to follow the rules or do we need to do more than that to be on God's good side? And is that even a question that matters anymore today?
Thanks for listening.
