Rejuvenation: Echoes of Egypt
Published 3 weeks, 5 days ago
Description
Bar Ilan professor Rabbi Dr. Joshua Berman has just published a Hagadda for Passover. Based on his research on ancient Egypt it’s clear that the Torah was written in that context, something Eve Harow experienced when she travelled there with Dr. Berman 3 years ago.
They discuss the revolutionary thought of the Torah in varied aspects including freedom for the individual and a personal relationship with our Creator.
The book is a timely synthesis of Torah and academia and its beautiful illustrations will draw the younger generation into the Seder as well.
His new podcast The Bible Bar will give you a weekly insights into timeless texts.
Enjoy and be safe.
