Shmuz on the Parsha Ki Tisa

Parshas Ki Tisah: The Love of MoneyIn today’s society, we are relentlessly bombarded with two fallacies: One, that money equals happiness and two, that our sense of self should be defined by our net worth. The Torah rejects both of these ideas, and yet we see from this week’s parsha that attraction to money is something inherent in the briah. In this uncomfortably relevant Shmuz, Rabbi Shafier encourages us to take a long hard look at how we judge ourselves and others- are our attitudes towards money in line with Torah hashkafa? Or are we constantly pursuing the next best thing, hoping that it will give us the elusive satisfaction for which we all crave? See acast.com/privacy for privacy and opt-out information.
