Parashat Tazria 5782: Selective Memory; Choosing Productive Narratives

This podcast episode is sponsored by Pardes alum Graham Hoffman in honor of his parents, teachers, and role models Rabbi Richard and Rebbitzen Debra Zussman.

Description: Why bring a sin offering after giving birth? The Gemara suggests that is all about forgetting. Parashat HaChodesh, on the other hand, is all about remembering. Yet these parshiyot usually fall together in leap years. Perhaps this points to the way Jewish tradition constructs healthy narratives.
