Torah of Life
Promises to God, and Each Other...
Welcome back to the Torah of Life podcast. Thanks for listening.
This week's Torah reading talks about a whole host of issues, including what happens when we make a vow to God.
Simply put, the Torah says that if we make a vow to God, we absolutely, 100%, must honor it.
What if we made a vow we didn't mean to make? Is there any way around it?
Isn't there a way to get out of fulfilling our vows? What if they become too hard? Can we get credit just for trying?
And do the same rules apply to promises we make to others as well? What about those promises we make to ourselves?
Listen now for some answers to these questions, which will serve us well as we get closer to Rosh Hashanah and Yom Kippur.
Thanks for listening to the Torah of Life podcast, your home for transformational wisdom from a Jewish lens.
