Episode 13

Purim: The Fight Over the Fiftieth Gate

Our Sages write that one should get to a level on Purim where one cannot differentiate between "blessed is Mordechai and cursed is Haman."

What is the meaning of this?

Haman asks his wife, Zeresh, for advice on how to deal with Mordechai, the Jew. She gives him a solution to build a gallows 50 Amos high and hang him from there.

What was the great wisdom in this solution of hers?

Listen to this episode to understand the deeper fight taking place here - who exists at the 50th level of wisdom.

Based on the teachings of the Maharal and the Sfas Emes.

I will be sharing a daily (one minute) dose of Purim inspiration ft the Sfas Emes and others.
