e-TiM: Online Program
Understanding Tanach: Pshat, Midrash and Halacha
10 classes from April 21 to August 11, 2021
Beginning in the days of Rashi, great rabbis began offering peshat interpretations of biblical texts that often deviated from previous midrashic interpretations found in the gmara or in works of midrash halakhah. In this series, each week we will study one biblical text, either a narrative or a law, where we can see the tension between these new peshat understandings and the older midrashic traditions.
There will be a 4 week break from June 16 until July 14, 2021.
