Take One: Berakhot 6 and 7
Today’s daily pages of Talmud wonder whether God also prays, and offer parenting advice from the Almighty
January 9, 2020
Today’s Daf Yomi pages, Berakhot 6 and 7, raise a strange and wonderful question: Does God pray? And if so, what does the Almighty ask for? Because the rabbis believed God prayed for nothing more than not losing His temper with us, His misbehaved children, we asked the show’s producer, Josh Kross, a longtime stay-at-home dad, to offer his perspective on what mothers and fathers here on earth can learn from our Heavenly Father about keeping your cool and being a good parent. Want to know what God commands you to do next time your kids are being annoying? Listen and find out.
Take One is Tablet Magazine’s daily Daf Yomi podcast.
