[Unedited] Avivah Zornberg with Krista Tippett
b'You probably know the outline of the Exodus story and its main characters: Moses, the Pharaoh, the burning bush, the plagues, the parting of the sea. And, in another realm of the power of story, the words \\u201clet my people go\\u201d and the arc of liberation from slavery have inspired people in crisis and catharsis across time and cultures. Call it \\u201cmyth\\u201d if you will \\u2014 as the Greek Statesman Solon said, myth is not something that never happened. It\\u2019s something that happens over and over and over again. Avivah Zornberg walks us through the Exodus story that is relived in the Jewish Passover and resonates through Easter. She is a modern-day master of midrash \\u2014 the ancient Jewish art of inquiry for discovering the deepest of meaning in and between the biblical lines. What can look simple on the surface, as she reveals, is a cargo of hidden stories that tell the messy, strange, redemptive truth of us as we are and life as it is. Krista and Avivah Zornberg had this lovely, intimate conversation in the early days of this show, in 2005.'
