Listen "Noach 5786: Rebuilding the World"
Episode Synopsis
How do we rebuild a broken world without simply recreating the past?
In this episode, Zvi Hirschfield and Rabbi Leon Morris explore Parshat Noach as a story not just of destruction, but of renewal. They discuss God’s recalibration of expectations after the flood, the new covenant symbolized by the rainbow, and Noah’s struggle to rebuild a broken world. Through Midrash and modern parallels—from post-Holocaust resilience to the founding of Israel—they reflect on what it means to create anew without recreating the past, and to find faith after devastation.
