Rabbi Marc’s A Dash of Drash – Sinai and the Power of Myth is Episode 88 – Yitro

Rabbi Marc Soloway January 24, 2019 Jewish Life Comments Off on Rabbi Marc’s A Dash of Drash – Sinai and the Power of Myth is Episode 88 – Yitro

Sinai and the Power of Myth is Episode 88 of A Dash of Drash.

I was on a amazing and beautiful road trip from Telluride, Colorado to Taos, New Mexico, listening to Joseph Campbell in conversation with Bill Moyers on “The Power of Myth” on an audio book. The stunning landscapes and profound wisdom made me think of the powerful, central narrative of Sinai in this week’s parsha, Yitro. How does that story, that defining myth shape us every day?

Thanks for listening with a generous heart and sharing with others!
