Listen "Why Do Jewish Days Begin at Sundown? The Hidden Wisdom of Nightfall"
Episode Synopsis
In this episode of Dear Rabbi, I explain the unique Jewish concept of the day beginning at sundown. Tracing this tradition back to the biblical account of creation, I explore how the Torah's pattern of "evening and morning" established our distinctive approach to marking time. I share a deeper spiritual meaning behind this practice - how night represents life's challenges while day symbolizes clarity, suggesting that by beginning with darkness, Judaism teaches us that light always follows. This concept reminds us that all things are good in the end, and if it's not good, it's simply not the end.
