Welcome to the Thirty Second episode of Daily Daf Differently. In this episode, Rabbi Brad Hirschfield looks at Masechet Shabbat Daf 33. Today we explore the temptation, and ultimate failure, of explaining human suffering by means of simple calculations of reward and punishment.
Rabbi Brad Hirschfield serves as President of Clal – The National Jewish Center for Learning and Leadership, and is the author most recently of You Don’t Have To Be Wrong For Me To Be Right: Finding Faith Without Fanacticism. A public ethicist and media commentator, he writes regularly for both the WashingtonPost.com and FOXNews.com.
The opening and closing music for this podcast is Ufros from The Epichorus album One Bead.
