Tu B'Shvat: Taking Prophecy for Granted

Tu B’Shvat is a quiet Yom Tov that is almost hidden. And yet, it carries within it something enormous. Rav Shlomo Katz and the chevra of Shirat David explore the inner meaning of Tu B’Shvat through the mitzvah of Bikkurim and the words of Rav Reuven Sasson. Why does the Torah require a full retelling of Jewish history over a single piece of fruit? And why does the Torah choose something so ordinary — something annual, something we get used to — to teach us how to see our lives? From the danger of living in katnut to the power of seeing ourselves as part of a centuries-long chain, Rav Shlomo shows how Tu B’Shvat trains us not to take prophecy, redemption, or our own lives for granted. A reflection on fruit, history, Eretz Yisrael, and what it means to live inside a dream that is still unfolding. ---------- For more Shuirim and Music from Rav Shlomo Katz, visit: https://ravshlomokatz.com Join Rav Shlomo Katz's WhatsApp Community: https://chat.whatsapp.com/KHKOhhPaeHx...
