Back to EpisodesR. Shai Held: A New Interpretation of Creation and the Flood
Published 7 months, 4 weeks ago
Description
Can anything new possibly be said about the opening chapters of the Torah? In this class, R. Shai Held makes use of literary analysis of seemingly familiar texts to explore the radical idea that Parashat Bereishit is inviting us to see the world, in all its beauty and heartbreak, through God’s own eyes. Recorded in Spring 2025.
