#18: Why Bad Things Happen to Good People: Three Torah Perspectives on this Vexing Problem

JL;DR SUMMARY This podcast explores the challenging question of why bad things happen to good people, known as theodicy, through three Torah perspectives derived from discussions between Moses and God, as well as references to ministering angels and Adam.

  • This Lebowski, he called himself the Dude.
  • Now, Dude, that's a name no one would self-apply where I come from.
  • But then, there was a lot about the Dude that didn't make a whole lot of sense to me.
  • And a lot about where he lived, likewise. But then again, maybe that's why I found the place s'durned innarestin'.
