Episode 57: Black Fire/White Fire: Torah & the Challenge of Modernity

 

In this episode, Dr. Jew and Rev. Gentile actually debate Scripture, Revelation, and interpretation.

“For Jewish mystics, the white fire is the hidden meanings of the Torah that lie beneath the written text (black fire).  “I want to suggest a new interpretation for our time. The white fire is the larger world around us. Without the white spaces the Torah can not be read. Without the white fire the Torah would be lacking a larger context.” – Rabbi Michael Strassfeld
