How Teshuvah (Repentance) Works

Is it possible to change not only the future but also the past? Teshuvah – repentance – makes it possible, but how can that be? And how does it work? What is necessary, and what role does reconciliation play? Is it a means or an end?

And above all, the question: What world-changing role does Teshuva play for all of humanity and world history?

Rav. Jaron Engelmayer, Chief Rabbi of the IKG Vienna, explains the deeper meaning of Teshuvah in general and particularly before the High Holy Days in the month of Elul.

We invite you to explore these questions and discuss them with Chief Rabbi Engelmayer.
