About this episode
Many of us secretly harbor the belief the we would make a fine president. Leading a nation sounds like a cushy job: armies of aides at your beck and call, ready to execute your agenda and vision. Kings have truly unlimited power. They don't have term limits. There are no checks and balances to weaken their power. Jewish Kings however are subject to God. The Torah limits their powers and checks their authority. They must be subservient to their Creator and must exemplify humility. In this wonderful and provocative Parsha podcast, we explore the fascinating subject of a Jewish King and share a very controversial and surprising insight on the attribute of humility.
