Judging Everything Favorably in Judaism – ‎ Good Idea or Requirement?

from What Does Judaism Say About...? · host Rabbi Dr. Nachum Amsel

It is almost human nature that when something goes wrong, we attribute fault to others, even when alternative explanations are available and often the reality. Judaism and its sources clearly want a Jew to think good of other people in all situations; especially then various explanations are possible. Is this just a good idea or actually required of an observant Jew? This podcast will analyze this idea and resolve these and other questions, based on traditional sources.
