Listen "Dan Lekaf Zechus and the Middle Path"
Episode Synopsis
The Mishna in Avos 1:6 tells us to judge a person favorably. This episode discusses the Rambam’s explanation of this Mishna in which he provides a methodology for judging other people’s actions. It also discusses the relevance of dan lekaf zechus to the Gemara in Shabbos 55b which says that Dovid and Shlomo didn’t sin (in the way that the plain reading of the pesukim imply). Furthermore, this episode discusses the benefits of the middle path and why chassidim diverge from this path slightly towards one side.
