Parashat Yitro 5782: Is the Idolatry a Relevant Category for Contemporary Life

Parashat Yitro 5782: Is the Idolatry a Relevant Category for Contemporary Life Description: In this week's podcast, Rabbi Mike Uram tackles Parashat Yitro noting that the first of the 10 Commandments is one that prohibits idolatry. Is this a relevant issue today? Mike explores what made the Torah and the Rabbis so afraid of idol worship and looks at some classical and contemporary sources to develop a more contemporary definition of idolatry, one that is more relevant and meaningful for today.
