Listen now
Description
In this week’s podcast, Rabbi Max Antman reflects on the rising political polarization in the United States and its impact on personal relationships. Drawing from Parshat Ki Teitzei, Rabbi Antman explores the Torah’s directive to refrain from hating traditional enemies, such as the Edomites and Egyptians, offering a powerful message about confronting the true enemy within—our own inclination toward division. Through personal stories and biblical wisdom, he invites listeners to choose reconciliation, healing, and love as the way forward in an increasingly divided world.
