(38) What Are Mitzvot, and Why Do We Keep Them?
from What Does Judaism Say About...? Hosted by Rabbi Dr. Nachum Amsel
Are Mitzvot commands from God or good deeds? What is the difference? If a Jew has full belief in God, why is there any need to do any action to prove that belief? Can one be a good Jew without keeping the commandments, as long as he believes - and vice versa? What is the overall purpose of Mitzvot-commandments? Does every individual commandment have a rationale we can understand? This podcast will explore these and other issues.
