The Portion
"The Portion" is a podcast where Aaron Roller, a curious Orthodox Jew, sits down with his brother-in-law, Rabbi Jonathan Bienenfeld, to discuss the portion of the Torah that is read each week by Jews around the world. The conversation is informal and friendly, but not afraid to delve into the wealth of Jewish wisdom and interpretation. Guests may join to offer their takes on the portion as well.

Why do ten of the twelve spies sent by Moshe come back with such terrible things to say about the Land of Israel? And why are the Children of Israel so quick to believe them? In this episode, we delve into the mentality that led to this debacle and the lessons we can derive for our own religious lives. Also, an explanation for the spies' sin with a sci-fi twist!
