The Portion
Re'eh: Meat Me in Jerusalem
Show Notes

In this week's discussion, Aaron and Rabbi Bienenfeld talk about the theme of food and eating runs through the Torah portion of Re'eh. From the laws of slaughter, to kosher food, to the sabbatical year, laws regarding how the Israelites are supposed to eat in the land abound. What does it all mean? Why aren't Jews required to be vegetarians? If G-d is everywhere, why is animal sacrifice limited to a single location? And how do the laws that don't relate to food fit in?
