Every week, Rabbi Shai Held invites an expert guest to explore a big question: Who is God? Why did God create the world? Why do bad things happen? No pressure. -

Smart and sweet Torah study
I LOVE this podcast. Adira and Miriam-Simma are so much fun to listen to. I always have a smile on my face. Smart, kind to each other, funny, and thoughtful.
Love the podcast
Adria brings a fresh perspective that makes the whole show. Love the Scripture and everything about this show.
Great length and great content
What a nice little bit of Torah to listen to with children. The cantillation is a nice touch.
