Rambam Bekius
Calling Upon God as a Witness to Your Teshuvah (Hilchos Teshuvah 2:2)
Show Notes

This afternoon (9/14/22), in our Rambam Bekius mini-shiur, we answered one of the questions we left off with yesterday: How is it possible to require The One Who Knows Hidden Things (i.e. God) to testify about you that you will never return to your sin? That seems to be an impossibly high standard! David Fischbein, a friend of mine, gave an amazing answer to this question, which I did a rather inadequate job of expressing in shiur today. If you're interested in the voice note on WhatsApp, let me know and I'll send it to you.
