Putting The Stoic Jew Podcast on Sacred Pause (Aurelius – Meditations 12:23; Epictetus – Enchiridion 17; Seneca – Letter #2)

The Stoic Jew

Synopsis: In this last episode of the season, which is the last season of the first year of this podcast, I reflect on the year as a whole and on the role of this podcast in my year. If this episode is more “rambly” than usual, it’s only because I had a lot to say, and had to decide (in real time) what ought to be said, and how. Shlomo ha’Melech says: “there is a time to be silent and a time to speak” (Koheles 3:7). I conclude this podcast by stating what my plan is for the summer, as far as this podcast and the rest of my Torah content is concerned.
