Rosh ha'Shanah 5781: Yom ha'Din vs. Yom Teruah
Show Notes

Today (9/11/20) was our inaugural Lomdeha Friday Seminar shiur! In this shiur we aimed to answer three questions: (1) What, exactly, is the Yom ha'Din? (Judgment Day)? How does the judgment work? (2) Why is the Written Torah silent on the Yom ha'Din aspect of Rosh ha'Shanah? Why is Yom ha'Din only mentioned in the Oral Torah? (3) What is the relationship between the Yom ha'Din and Yom Teruah (a.k.a. the name given to the Yom Tov of Rosh ha'Shanah in the Written Torah)? We attempt to answer these questions using the radical explanation offered by the Abravanel.
