About this episode

Rabbi Levi Lebovits discusses the significance of Shavuos as a metaphor for marriage and the deeper meaning of the Torah in Jewish life.

Some look at the holiday of Shavuos not only as our receiving the Torah, but more like a bridegroom and a bride coming together in marriage. The Torah is more than just our rules and laws - it's the fabric that holds Jews together. Rabbi elaborates on this and the idea that Shavuos is also a time to challenge yourself to not just settle for mastering something, but to use it as a jumping off point to something even greater.
