The Jewish perspective on the function of a home is revolutionary. The home is not an aside, it is the incubator for all meaningful contribution to the world.

Today, Chava Green shares her personal and professional experience with the idea of the "akeres habayis". Chava is a PhD student, writing her dissertation on chassidic feminism. She is also a woman navigating her own identity in a world that attributes little to the essential qualities of a woman.

What does it mean to celebrate my femininity within my Jewish home? What does it mean for the home to be the foundation of our society, and the Jewish home the center for Jewish life? And even if I am not a parent, how can I show up to nurture the home within myself? || To become a paying subscriber of the podcast, please visit patreon.com/humanandholy.
