Bo 5785: The Power of Listening

How can memory both guide and hinder us? In this episode, Zvi Hirschfield and Rachel Goldberg-Polin explore Parshat Bo through the lens of memory, mahloket (disagreement), and the importance of constructive conflict. They discuss how memory can either ground or entrap us, the art of listening as a transformative tool, and how Jewish tradition values diverse perspectives. This episode uses Pardes’ Mahloket Matters methodology to navigate complex disagreements, offering valuable tools for constructive dialogue. Learn more about Mahloket Matters.
