About this episode
On today’s pages, Menachot 35 and 36, we encounter a startling image: God showing Moses the knot of the tefillin. Rabbi David Bashevkin joins us to explore this anthropomorphic mystery, explaining that while we can never see God’s face—the future unfolding—we can always see God’s back by looking retrospectively at our lives and history. The knot at the back of the head symbolizes how we remain tethered to the Divine even when the path ahead is unclear. What does it mean to be wrapped in a divine embrace through history? Listen and find out.
