Haazinu 5787: Words That Endure
from Pardes from Jerusalem · host Pardes Institute of Jewish Studies
What does it mean to teach without knowing what will take root? In this episode, Zvi Hirschfield and Dr. Ales Weiss explore Moshe’s transformation from a reluctant speaker into the poet of Parshat Ha’azinu. They consider the poetry of Ha’azinu as an act of acceptance: after a lifetime of leading, teaching, and trying to shape Israel’s future, Moshe must ultimately let go of control. Their conversation turns to teaching, Jewish life in Prague, and the optimism it takes to plant words whose impact you may never see.
