"Truth" in Shoftim

This week, Modya and David discuss parshat Shoftim (Deut. 16:18-21:9) through the lens of the trait of Truth. How does the establishment of a system of justice preserve and advance -- and sometimes undermine -- the quest for truth? What is the relationship between truth and memory? How does one balance the elements of justice and mercy in the quest for pursuing (and even defining) truth? We hope you'll listen in as the hosts contemplate these and other questions raised by this week's Torah portion! Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices
