The lesson of honouring a parent has far reaching consequences as Avimi learns when his father, Rabbi Abahu, nods off. In a wonderful vignette in the Talmud we'll discover connections to Abraham, 21st century belief and everything in between. Come and discover the dramatic insight of Avimi which contains a theology more radical than you might have expected.
