Machshava:
Purim 

Collections: Rabbi Wiederblank RIETS Friday Class 2011

Description

This shiur is the 17th Shiur in the RIETS Machsava Class for semicha students and the 4th shiur on the topic of providence in the world. We begin by examining the opinion of Rav Dessler and Chazon Ish on providence and bitachon. Then we turn to the debate among Rishonim about the meaning and scope mazal. Finally, we consider how this relates to the story of Purim.
