Description

This class explores the mitzvah obligating Kohanim to become impure for close relatives and reveals its deeper foundation: the Torah’s mandate of aveilus. Through Rambam, Sefer HaChinuch, and lived examples, we uncover mourning as a structured, transformative process designed to channel grief into reflection, growth, and teshuva.
