The Kabbalists revealed to us that each Hebrew months is associated with one of the 12 tribes. The month of Adar, the month in which Purim occurs, corresponds to the tribe of Naftali. We know very little about Naftali. In the Torah, his role is quite limited. In this absolute masterpiece of a podcast, Rabbi Botnick triumphantly weaves an intricate web of sources and insights that demonstrate how Nafatali symbolizes the heart of the month. We learn about the Kabbalistic representation of Rachel and her sister Leah, about the wedge that Esau and his heir Amaleik try to drive between these two sisters, and about how Naftali symbolizes the ultimate redemption and reunification.
