Tu B’Shvat (Episode 10)

March 25, 2018 8:14 am

Happy Tu B’Shvat to those celebrating or not!

This epsiode takes a good look at Tu B’Shvat the holiday, tracing it from the Mishna to modern day. Along the way we discuss the halachot (Jewish Law) of produce, why Man likes tree metaphors so much, what the Tree of Knowledge actually was, means and ends (which justifies which?), Spinoza and Plato, and end off with a nice insight into the deeper meaning of the holiday.

Tzvi’s daughters make a guest appearance in the introduction.

Follow us on Facebook – search “holy madness the show” (follow the group, and then join “Holy Madness – The Discussion Group” for thought provoking topics and educational and entertaining talk), or email us at [email protected]. Spread the good word, y’all. Add us to your RSS feed, to your iTunes, or follow us here on soundcloud. We also now have a Patreon – www.patreon.com/holymadness – so if youd like to help keep this going, head on down there.

To people whose social theories and politics are infused with postmodernism, Trump has been like God — not because of his perfect goodness...but because he is the explanation of everything. Actually, postmodernists are part of the explanation of him.
