Cultural Program: The Humanism of the First Version of the Hebrew Bible

On January 31st, 2021, our Rabbi Tzemah Yoreh, gave the first presentation in his series of talks about his new book, Why Abraham Murdered Isaac: The First Stories of the Bible Revealed.

There used to be a version of the Hebrew Bible where God was not the hero, and Rabbi Tzemah has dedicated his scholarly life to uncovering it. Join him for this romp through history as we explore the reasons for the religification of our first book of legends and wisdom. In this talk, Rabbi Tzemah dives into his biblical research, made accessible in his new book, Why Abraham Murdered Isaac: The First Stories of the Bible Revealed.
