In my sermon from the Torah portion Shemini, I discuss the mysterious deaths of Nadav and Avihu (Lev. 10:1-3). The enigmatic story reminds us that the moral complexity of powerful stories helps us refine our moral sensibilities and find moral clarity when confronting injustice in our world.

My Shabbat message from Passover Day 7, the day we commemorate our passing through the Sea and the possibilities of freedom.

This was my most asked-about and commented-on sermon during the past High Holy Day cycle. It was disappointing when we learned there had been a technical difficulties, and the recording failed. I often find myself thinking often about this dismissive and harmful false claim about Jews and our relationship with the land of Israel. If it speaks to you and/or you think it would be useful in helping others deepen and refine their knowledge on a complex set of questions, please share it!
