In this week’s podcast, Karen Miller Jackson explores the themes of boundaries and distinction through the question of why were Nadav and Avihu punished. Although commentators have differing opinions, they all have in common that Nadav and Avihu sinned in their blurring of boundaries. There is a time for physicality, and a time for spirituality; a time for closeness and distance; a time for grieving and a time for celebration. As we approach Yom Ha’Zikaron and Yom Ha’Atzmaut, we can take with us this essential message from Parashat Shmini. Sign up here to receive this podcast weekly.
