On Being with Krista Tippett show

Summary: Avivah Zornberg is one of the great, creative interpreters of Talmud and Torah in the ontemporary world. She guides us through the Exodus story that is commemorated during the eight days of Passover. Passover is also the backdrop of the Easter events of the Christian New Testament. We find meaning in the text that Cecil B. DeMille and Disney never imagined — about the worst and the best of human nature, and the realities and ironies of human freedom.
