Rabbi Scott Kahn - What Is Orthodox Judaism and Why Should You Care? Ep. 63

One of the most common questions by far that I get from listeners to this podcast is: “I know you’re an Orthodox Jew, and you mention it a lot on the pod, but…what does that actually mean?”In this episode, I brought on fellow Orthodox Jewish podcaster Rabbi Scott Kahn to unpack this. Along the way we talked about our go-to explanations for people who aren’t Jewish about what Orthodox Judaism is; the challenge of feeling excitement during prayer; why Orthodox Jews seem to spend so much time engaged in ritual after ritual; what’s more interesting: dogma or practice?; the unique perspective that Jewish sages have brought to the study of the Bible; what valuable lessons American society might be able to take from the Orthodox Jewish experience; and much more!
