In this class, Rabbi Aaron defines the Jewish understandings of ‘covenant’ and ‘fear’. Judaism believes G-d comes to empower humans, sharing a divine creative power. But the secret of tise sharing and of the Divine creative power can only come to a person who has a healthy sense of ‘fear’. Wait, if Hashem loves me, why do I have to be afraid?
