Making modern meaning from ancient texts.! Each week Rabbi Micah Streiffer discusses the weekly Torah portion in about 7 to 12 minutes, through liberal Jewish eyes. We weave together philosophy, spirituality, tradition, and social justice - and derive meaning for today‘s life from our sacred sources. Longer episodes include a bonus interview with leading rabbis and Jewish thought leaders. Seven Minute Torah is a production of LAASOK, the liberal Beit Midrash (”House of Study”).

In this conversation with Rabbi Emma Gottlieb, we discuss all the ways that Moses responds to change, adversity, and rebellion in the Sinai desert. How his (and our) capacity for leadership is built on support, compassion, and knowing when to ask for help.
Plus, we talk about pioneering women rabbis, Judaism in South Africa, books and more!
