The Maggid of Melbourne brings another tale, this time about the planning of the building of Yeshivat Har Etzion and Rav Amital's reaction to learning there would be no windows in the Beit Midrash. We learn of two versions of the story, one telling us that Rav Amital's reaction was based on scent, but another teaches that it was related to sight. Sight, perhaps we could understand, but scent? Listen in to find out why both senses are important when planning our sacred spaces.
