e-TiM: The Soul of the Mishna: Making the Mishna Meaningful

As the foundational text of the Oral Torah, the Mishna generally is studied to understand Jewish law and the workings of the halakhic system. But, there is also an inner spirit to the work that often goes unnoticed, a profundity that provides important principles and insights for everyday life, such as those relating to G-d’s presence in the world and interpersonal relations. This series will focus on the Mishniot relavant for the  upcoming Chagim.
