S1, E37 The Power of Repentance
from The Great Sources with Rabbi Shnayor Burton · host Rabbi Shnayor Burton
How does repentance work? Can a wrong be made right with no more than regret and a commitment to be better? Teshuva goes much deeper than regret and commitment, teaches the Avodas Hakodesh. The sinner who engaged with evil must reconstruct God’s divine world by understanding the roots of good and evil; by facing his evil and repudiating it, he strengthens the connection between Hashem and His creation. This endeavor secures atonement and redemption for him and the whole of creation. For this episode's sources, click here Please take a moment to subscribe and leave a review on Apple Podcasts.
