We'll examine the complexities of the spies' characters and decisions, and how these events set Tisha B'Av as a date of tragedy throughout Jewish history. The podcast will also draw parallels to parenting and personal relationships, reflecting on the consequences of our actions and the importance of integrity and foresight in leadership.
