Parsha: Vayikra - Push-Ups and Drawdowns

From Rabbi Yaakov Wolbe Podcast Collection TORCH

The concept of sacrifices is quite foreign to us. It's been nearly 2,000 years since our nation merited to bring a sacrifice in God's Temple. We hope and pray and yearn for the rebuilding of the temple and the resumption of sacrifices. But as of today, sacrifices are hard for us to appreciate. The Torah spends a lot of time on sacrifices. Adam brought a sacrifice. Cain and Abel brought sacrifices. Noah, after departing the ark, Noah brought a sacrifice. Abraham brought sacrifices. Jethro brought sacrifices. The pastel lamb is a sort of sacrifice. And the entirety of our Parsha relates to sacrifice us. What could be the the deeper meaning behind these rituals? In this very interesting podcast, we share a profound and insightful idea that won't forever reshape how we understand sacrifices but truthfully how we understand the mechanism of divine interaction with our world.
