Is Orthodox Judaism still Talmudic — or has it slipped into safe, post-Talmudic conformity? Professor Menachem Fisch — Joseph & Ceil Mazer Professor Emeritus at Tel Aviv University, Director of its Center for Religious and Inter-religious Studies, and Humboldt Research Prize laureate — joins Levi Brackman to reveal the Talmud as a radical engine of creative dissent and critical self-examination. Discover:
- Why the Bavli’s fictitious debates matter more than their “final” rulings
- Hillel vs. Shammai and the virtue of being offendable
- Parallels between paradigm shifts in science and halakhic evolution
- How every learner can — and must — own the conversation
🎧 Watch / listen now and rethink what it means to be a “Talmudic Jew.”
