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.

Episode 14
In this week's discussion about Parshat Bo, we talk about the meaning of the Exodus and almost start singing Avraham Fried. We ask, was Moshe telling the truth when he told Pharaoh the Israelites were just going to worship for three days? Rabbi Bienenfeld has a surprising answer. And we delve into the significance of the matzoh and how it was a little like "Back to the Future" (just a little).
