We will explore the primary Jewish\ntexts regarding the application of this mitzvah in real life. • What are the\nattitudes\, emotions and behaviors that love requires? • How do we develop\nthose attitudes\, emotions and behavior tendencies? • Can\, and should\, we love\nothers equally to ourselves? • Should we love people who do bad things? • What\nis self-love and is it included in this mitzvah? • Why is this mitzvah\nconsidered the greatest principle of Judaism? \nTuition: $95 \nView event on Jlive: https://jlive.app/events/8569
