Cup of Salvation Classic: Relying On My Rabbit’s Foot – Inside the Pagan Mind

August 12, 2019 2:08 pm

WHILE THE CUP OF SALVATION PODCAST IS ON A FOUR WEEK SUMMER HIATUS, ENJOY THIS CLASSIC EPISODE!

“Pagans were not stupid.” With these rousing words, Rabbi Pesach Wolicki claims that our usual assumption that pagans were merely silly and foolish prevents us from understanding the real polemic against them in the Bible. If we understand what they were actually thinking, many seemingly innocuous verses in Scripture come alive with meaning. Along with David Nekrutman, Rabbi Wolicki examines Psalms 115:5, and it’s emphasis on an idol’s inability to see or speak (no, these terms are not random). Along the way, Rabbi Wolicki tells a story about an umpire who broke his glasses on the second pitch of a softball game in Virginia… and whether saying that “He’s being punished” is a religious or a pagan attitude.

The Chareidi political leadership continues to encourage its voters to die a painful, lonely death. What a perversion of Torah values. What horrible leadership. I'm literally sick reading this. https://www.timesofisrael.com/under-haredi-pressure-pm-said-to-agree-to-soften-bill-hiking-lockdown-fines/ via @timesofisrael

And once again, a segment of the Orthodox community demonstrates how it supposedly follows halacha without understanding the first thing about halachic values.

THIS. IS. AWESOME.
No matter where you stand politically, this is the wonderful America I remember from my youth and this is the culture that I am going to do everything in my power to bring to Israel - including the necessary electoral reform to allow for it.
