Ep. 68 Asher Bachar Banu– The Gift of Torah and a Life of Purpose

from Connected: Prayer with Purpose - Rabbi Eliyahu Farhi · host Rabbi Eliyahu Farhi

In this episode, Rabbi Eliyahu Farhi explores the blessing “Asher Bachar Banu Mikol Ha’amim Ve’Natan Lanu Et Torah'to.” What does it really mean that Hashem chose the Jewish people and gave them the Torah? Through the famous teaching that Hashem offered the Torah to every nation before Israel accepted it, Rabbi Farhi explains that the Torah is not only wisdom, it is a way of life filled with meaning, direction, and purpose. Hashem saw in the Jewish people a unique dedication and stubborn commitment to serve Him, beginning with Avraham Avinu. That commitment is what made us the nation capable of receiving the Torah.
