"In the beginning"...Then What?
September 15, 2021 - 26:15 | Ep. 38
Dr. Yeshaya Gruber joins us again to talk about his course Exploring Jewish Interpretations. Last week we talked about the diversity in interpreters and how their social, historical, and geographical context influenced their interpretations. This week we talk about all the ways you can interpret the first phrase in the book of Genesis.
Episode Notes
We started the conversation with the first phrases of Genesis and ended with the ongoing modern interpretation of the question, "Who is my neighbor?" Dr. Gruber’s course is fascinating and will make your mind bend in interesting ways.
