Today’s Talmud page, Nedarim 14, launches a meditation on vows, intentions, sleep, and speech. Commemorating the second yahrzeit of the late, great Rabbi Jonathan Sacks, we bring a sermon of his that addresses these very subjects. How can the things we say and don't say transform our reality? Listen and find out.
