Description

In the Aseres HaDibros, the first Mitzva is אנכי השם אלוקיך, the mitzva of Emuna. In this shiur we will try to define this mitzva. Is it accepting the fundamentals of our religion based upon tradition, i.e. is it Blind Faith? Or are we obligated to engage in philosophical inquiry and demonstrate the logical proofs for the existence of God, and other basics of the faith?
