Description

The most universally popular statement in the Torah, the Golden Rule, hits snags in the details of how to implement it. How does one fulfil this mitzvah? How far does it go? This episode explores two different approaches, that of Tosfot and that of the Ramban in understanding what the Golden Rule really means. The underlying question of how to go about fulfilling and growing in this mitzvah is dealt with by means of starting off with care not to harm others in any way at all. This care for others will grow into a budding love for humanity and valuing of other human beings.
