   67 Ben Bris: The Reality of our Choices

   Why does the Yehi Ratzon describe a harsh opponent as a ben bris or she’eino ben bris—and why does it conclude with Gehinnom? Episode 67 explores how the language of bris reminds us not only who the other person is, but who we are. Through the story of Dovid and Avigayil, we discover that sometimes we need Hashem to save us not only from what others may do to us, but from what we may choose to do next.
