Yom Yerushalayim - You Did Nothing Wrong. And That's Exactly The Problem.

from Nitzotzos: Inspiration to Keep Your Spark Alive with Rav Mordechai Burg · host Nitzotzos

You can keep every rule and still miss the whole point.The Gemara says Yerushalayim was destroyed because people judged by strict Torah law and did not live lifnim mishuras hadin. But that does not mean they failed to go “outside” the law. It means they failed to go deeper inside it.In this shiur, delivered in Tomer Devorah, Rav Burg explains that Halacha is not only a system of boundaries. It is a system meant to build people who live in relationship with Hashem and with each other. When a person hides behind the line of din and says, “I did nothing wrong,” he may be legally innocent but spiritually disconnected.This shiur explores why “I don’t owe you” can destroy a relationship, a society, and even Yerushalayim itself.
