Rabbi Vered Harris was a guest on KCUR's Up to Date program on May 3rd.
She joined Judith Shulevitz, author of The Sabbath World: Glimpses of a Different Order of Time, Rev. Brian Ellison of Parkville Presbyterian Church, host Steve Kraske and callers to discuss the rules of communal restraint, and if in this day of constant bombardment from electronic communication and work, a "day off" has an even greater meaning. Also, the history of the Sabbath through Jewish and Christian writings, and how other faiths, including Islam, Buddhism, and Hindusim approach the Sabbath.
