Chukas - When the Well Runs Dry: Water, Loss and the Power of Words

from Nitzotzos: Inspiration to Keep Your Spark Alive with Rav Mordechai Burg · host Nitzotzos

In this shiur, delivered in "Steve's", Rav Burg explores the moment Klal Yisrael lost Miriam and, along with her, their sense of continuity.Rav Burg delves into why their reaction to a lack of water was truly a displaced expression of grief over Miriam’s absence and how finding language for our loss can transform our struggles.When Hashem told Moshe to speak to the rock, it was a lesson for us all: we can give language to the hardest parts of life, approach them tenderly, and discover that those very places become life-giving wells.
