Tzav

On today’s episode, we discuss Parshat Tzav, the second parsha in the book of Leviticus, and it’s about…ANIMAL SACRIFICES. You would think sacrifices have very little relevance for us moderns. However, as Sivan explains, the parsha has two urgent messages: do hard things, and how gratitude, not attitude. How do you put these insights into practice? Sivan’s got you covered.
