Ep. 42 Shelo Asani Aved - Freedom isn’t just physical

Rabbi Eliyahu Farhi unpacks Shelo Asani Aved – “Thank You, Hashem, for not making me a slave.” While we may no longer know physical slavery, many still live bound by inner chains – addictions, anxieties, habits, or self-limiting beliefs. This beracha calls us to see Hashem as the One who can set us free from whatever owns us inside. True freedom isn’t about doing whatever we want – it’s about no longer being a slave to what we don’t want to be.
