The Lost Generation -- Two Paths to Redemption

About this episode

This episode discusses the two paths to redemption as explained by Ramban, focusing on the Jews who left Egypt and their journey towards the promised land and the world-to-come.

The Jews who left Egypt never entered the promised land! Ramban explains that the book of Shemos leads from exile to redemption. There are two tracks to redemption. One, leads to the promised land on this earth, and one to the world-to-come -- two expressions of the same concept, only in two different dimensions.
