Episode description

Since inaugurating this podcast, and focusing a long series on charedim

and army service, one episode has conspicuously been missing: a full

treatment of the halachic parameters of the notion of milchemes mitzvah,

as well as an analysis commonly advanced ideals such as "Torah magneh

u'matzleh" ("Torah study protects"). In this episode we remedy that void

and address these issues that are vital to any Torah-centered Jew.

To do so, we speak with Rabbi Dr. Yitzchak Lifshitz, a noted rav and

rosh Kollel based in Yerushalayim, who has written extensively on these

topics in recent months. Rabbi Dr. Lifshiftz is also a professor of

philosophy at Shalem College.
