Today’s Daf Yomi pages, Sukkah 53 and 54, return to Simchat Beit Hashoeva, the festival of drawing up water and praying to God for rain that generated unspeakable joy and continues to inspire us. To give us a taste of what this musical celebration might've sounded like, and which emotions it was likely to stir up, we welcome to the show Nefesh Mountain, a Jewish bluegrass band winning fans with their newest album. How does music continue to move us? Listen and find out.
