Knowledge & Faith - Part 11

"The Origins of Evil"

(Recorded at the Intown Jewish Academy on December 3, 2017)

Look at the news and, unfortunately, you'll see a lot of bad things. A lot of really bad things. Which is both heartbreaking and a seeming impossibility from a spiritual and theological perspective: How does a good G-d allow for such evil in His world?

We're not the first to ask this questions. Many have grappled with this throughout the ages, including the great Kabbalists. In this session of Kabbalah & Coffee we'll explore the origins of evil from a Jewish mystical perspective. We'll visit a secret garden, and tour an ancient mountaintop. For it is there that much wisdom is to be found.
