LEARN how to answer anyone’s questions — including your own. Learn the full framework in the LIVE COURSE: https://soulwords.org/how 📅 Course starts March 16 In this video, Rabbi Shais Taub reexamines the Tree of Knowledge through a Jewish lens, challenging the idea of “original sin” and reframing it as the birth of self-consciousness. He explores how this shift introduced anxiety, ego, and existential discomfort into the human condition, and why mortality itself became part of the divine repair process. From the Tree of Knowledge to the Tree of Life, this is a deeper look at what really changed humanity. #TreeOfKnowledge #Anxiety #SelfConsciousness #JewishWisdom #SpiritualPsychology --- *For more classes from Rabbi Shais Taub:* 🌐 *Website:* https://www.soulwords.org/ *Follow Rabbi Shais Taub:* 📸 *Instagram:* https://www.instagram.com/rabbi_shais_taub 🎥 *TikTok:* https://www.tiktok.com/@rabbi_shais_taub 🐦 *X (Twitter):* https://www.x.com/ShaisTaub 📘 *Facebook:* https://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=61573478244968 💼 *LinkedIn:* https://www.linkedin.com/in/shais-taub-81a95466/ 🎧 *Listen to the SoulWords Podcast:* 🎵 *Spotify:* https://open.spotify.com/show/51E7XHWFDbZCGJQz7CoAZP 🍏 *Apple Podcasts:* https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/soulwords-full-library/id1450892501 *Support Our Work:* 💳 *Donate:* https://www.soulwords.org/donate/ 💰 *PayPal:* https://www.paypal.com/paypalme/soulwordspayments 💵 *CashApp:* https://cash.app/$soulwords 🪙 *Venmo:* https://venmo.com/u/soulwords *About SoulWords:* SoulWords is a virtual community hosted by Rabbi Shais Taub, where people come together to explore the spiritual insights of Torah and discover their unique purpose.
