Listen now
Description
Up to this point, this podcast series discussed what the mitzvah of kisui rosh is, who it applies to, and how and where it applies. In this final episode of the series, we start exploring why?  What is the mystical meaning behind hair covering? Menucha takes us through a few Chassidic sources that discuss the symbolism of hair in Kabbalah in general and how that sheds light on the obligation for married women in particular to cover their hair. This eye-opening conversation offers a novel perspective that can change the way you approach this mitzvah and your relationship with Torah observance as a whole.
