Ep. 129: Bamidbar Ch. 23 by Dov Lerner | Bilam tries to curse Israel yet fails multiple times

Within the comic story is some seriously beautiful alnguange. In today's audio, Dov Lerner, considers the signficance of how a verse from Bilam's mouth ended up as the first morse code message ever sent- what, indeed hath God wrought. Dov is assistant rabbi at congregation kins in Chicago, doctoral candidate at divinity school of uchicago, father of two red headed princesses and owner of a laptop. One of Great Britain's finest rabbinic exports! Having listened to Dov's piece now in full, I can say it is the single best piece of rabbinic sermonic spoken word rhetoric that I have heard in a long time. Wow!
