This podcast is a response to current conditions throughout the world and to this week's Biblical list of proscribed animals. In this podcast, Rabbi Elisha Ancselovits tours Tanakh (the Hebrew Bible) to discover one of the critical reasons for Biblical food proscriptions--mutual care and responsibility. Rabbi Ancselovits closes with a discussion of the nature of responsibility by examining the Biblical permission to eat locust.
