A Deeper Understanding of Pesher Davar

In this week's episode, we have a deeper discussion of why the proposal that R Menashe of Iliya was trying to create something similar to the Aguda of the 1920's is deeply flawed. We examine the very basic differences between the two time periods, and how this affects how we understand what his idea really was. We similarly look at how the basic pattern of R Menashe life and how he travelled a lot played a part in his ideas.  We also discuss the phenomenon of political parties and how the contemporary system has amplified the basic flaw of political parties.  This week's episode is sponsored by Binyomin and Orli Cohenbash in honor of my daughter Racheli's wedding to Ari Sherman  You can now help Rabbi Wittenstien  create new and original content via our non profit  'The Jewish History and Tanach Foundation'.  Your support and partnership is greatly appreciated.
