After The Truth
This Talmud class opens with a focus on a bodily weakness that brought strength of the spirit, and G-d’s protection upon the nation. For when our people is weary from intense devotion to Torah study, we are enabled to resist enemy oppression! We then move on to discover the meaning of post-mortem prophecies that tell of a Divine oath—bringing great challenges that ultimately channeled even greater sustenance. Finally, we learn about the energy and the burning power of synagogue oil lamps! (Talmud, Sanhedrin 94b)
