In today’s Talmud page, Kiddushin 32, the story is told of a great Rabbi who was serving drinks to the guests at the wedding of his son, and the other rabbis asked whether it was appropriate for such a great man to be serving them. Finally Rabbi Tzadok speaks up and reminds the others that God serves all people, so it is not inappropriate for a great man to do the same. This encourages us to consider the honor we invest in people and in God. Tablet writer Armin Rosen joins us to discuss a review he recently published about the Andrei Tarkovsky film Andrei Rublev which deals with just these questions? What does a soviet film from 1966 have to teach us about faith, and honoring God and man? Listen and find out.
