Ki Tisa (Guest Rabbi Pinchas Allouche)

Rabbi Pinchas Allouche, head Rabbi at Congregation Beth Tefillah in Scottsdale, and the host of the Rabbi Allouche podcast, joins Seth for the full hour to talk about this week's Torah portion, known as Ki Tisa, and themes of validation, purpose, and community. They also dive into the story of the Jewish people's desire to be seen and known, and how this relates to the concept of elevating others. Rabbi Allouche shares insights from the story of Moses and his census of the Hebrew people, where God commanded Moses to "elevate" rather than "count" the people. Rabbi Allouche also clarifies the term "Zionism" and the history of the Chabad movement.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
