So, first of all, Ladin is a gorgeous stylist and I’ve heard her teach before so I knew this was going to be good.
I’ve been reading a few pages every week since Simchat Torah and it’s an amazing long form drash. She does the thing that rabbis can do where they meld the personal with the interpretive to make the text shine anew and make the listener/reader rethink their relationship with both.
It was serious Torah.
