R. Micha'el Rosenberg: Righteous Anger Part 1
from Ta Shma · host Hadar Institute
From the Talmud to the Rambam and into the modern period, Rabbinic tradition generally views anger negatively. Anger appears as a kind of weakness, a temptation, even as the root of idolatry. But is rage always a bad thing? Can it be useful or morally sound? In this first of three lectures, Rav Micha’el dives into Maimonides’ approach to anger, which seems, at first, contradictory. How can anger both be avoided at all costs and also serve as an educational tool? Recorded in Fall 2024.
