Why did Rebbe Shimon bar Yochai retreat to a cave, and what does that story demand of us today? In this 8-minute teaching, Rav Shlomo Katz unpacks the holy defiance of Rashbi: a man who refused to compromise, whose words scorched falsehood, and whose cave became a furnace of Torah. As Lag Ba’Omer approaches, we’re called to examine our own idols of comfort and political correctness—and to step, trembling yet whole, into the fire of truth.
