The Steps Of Exile And Redemption

Rabbi Shnayor Burton and Mikey Stone

What is the purpose of Israel's exile? Is it a consequence of national sin, or a necessary condition for outreach to gentiles? On the surface, these are our sages' two main, opposing approaches, but in truth, they are two steps of one process by which ruptures in Daas Hashem are exposed and then repaired. Join us this week as we explore what this means, touching on some secrets of the Torah along the way.
