    Oct 30 2024

    Disclaimer: This fascinating conversation explores ideas that are highly controversial. As the guest makes clear, no firm conclusion should be drawn from anything we discuss here. The purpose is to expand our mind about the possible ways to understand ancient texts. Furthermore, our guest quotes many works with Hebrew titles, many authors, and many Torah themes that may not be familiar to all listeners. This may further increase the possibility for a listener to misunderstand and misinterpret.

    If you have any questions, feel free to contact Rabbi Yisroel Cohen at yisroelcohen12@gmail.com or Rabbi Shlomo at shlomobuxbaum@gmail.com.
