If God loves the poor, then why doesn’t he feed them himself?

This is a question question that Rabbi Akiva is asked by Tunus Rufus, the Roman Emperor who clashes with Rabbi Akiva about difficult questions about Jewish belief. And while Tunus Rufus’ questions are not made in good faith, as he wants Rabbi Akiva to fail, the questions are meant to provoke conversation and reflection.

Join Rabbi Josh for an exploration of a famous dialogue between Rabbi Akiva and Tunus Rufus about charity, and how it relates to the Eleh Ezkerah prayers of Yom Kippur.
