Shoftim: Trusting Hashem in Poverty and Jurisprudence

Length of the article: 2 pages
Length of the audio: 8 minutes 20 seconds
Synopsis: This is the audio version of the 2-page article I published on rabbischneeweiss.substack.com/ on 8/18/23, entitled: Shoftim: Trusting Hashem in Poverty and Jurisprudence. The last mishnah in Peah compares the bitachon of a poor person who refuses tzedakah to that of a judge who adjudicates truthfully. What does this mean? To answer, we must understand what bitachon is.
