After the trauma of 1648 and the failed messiah Sabbatai Zevi, a new spiritual movement emerges from the forests of Ukraine: Hasidism. This episode tells the story of the Baal Shem Tov, the doctrine of joy (simcha) over asceticism, and the rise of the Tzaddik as spiritual leader.

We also cover the fierce opposition led by the Vilna Gaon and the Mitnagdim, the historic 1772 herem (excommunication), and the lasting cultural split between Hasidic and Litvak Jewish communities that persists today.
