Welcome to the Hundred and Twenty First episode of Daily Daf Differently. In this episode, Rabbi Adina Lewittes looks at Masechet Shabbat Daf 122. This page in Massechet Shabbat deals with the permissibility of a Jew benefiting from work a non-Jew does for themselves on Shabbat. It then opens a new chapter of Massechet Shabbat that returns to the topic of muktzeh, things we are not permitted to move or use on Shabbat. The discussion concludes with a powerful insight into the spiritual, indeed existential, essence of Shabbat itself.
Rabbi Adina Lewittes is the founder of Sha’ar Communities in Bergen County, New Jersey, a groundbreaking suburban network of small, inclusive, and accessible Jewish communities connected by a broad vision of Jewish renaissance. An entrepreneur in her rabbinate, Rabbi Lewittes earlier founded Congregation Kol HaNeshamah in Englewood, New Jersey, and served as the first female Assistant Dean of the Rabbinical School at JTS during which time she participated in the rethinking and restructuring of the program’s curriculum.
The opening and closing music for this podcast is Ufros from The Epichorus album One Bead.
