Rabbi Josh wraps up the Independence miniseries by zooming out to the Jewish concept of brit (covenant) as the framework for true interdependence. Using Rabbi Shimon bar Yochai's boat parable, he contrasts American culture's rights-based individualism with Judaism's responsibility-centered worldview, and draws on Walt Whitman (via Jeremy Engels) to argue that even the self is a collaboration. Closes with a guided breathing meditation on covenant connection.
