Judaism and Grief, with Rabbi Batsheva Meiri

In this episode, Will sits down with Rabbi Batsheva Meiri of Congregation Beth Ha Tephila in Asheville, North Carolina, to talk about Judaism and grief. The conversation moves from a specific look at the year of rituals that commences after the death of a loved one to a general discussion of the grief work performed by a Rabbi. This latter topic opens the dialogue to the realm of trans-generational grief in the Jewish community and leads to the contemplation of the spiritual resistance cultivated by Jews and members of other faiths throughout the ages.
