Judaism From Within

A tribute to the legacy of Rav Samson Raphael HirschWhy This Title? It was his motto ’sich selbst begreifendes Ju dentum ’, Judaism understood from within, a term that encapsulates Rav Hirsch’s approach of diving into the essence of Judaism, viewing it through its inherent structures rather than through external lenses.Under the ”Topical Resources” , you’ll find additional Topics

Great Stuff

This is really great stuff, you really open up the world of Rav Hirsh - you display just how vital and relevant his thought is to our world today Really great work

You’re too close to the mic

Love this!!! But you should avoid plosive consonants (hard P, T, B) sounds because these create a lot of feedback on the podcast and it ends up being a collection of feedback because of how close you seem to be to the microphone
