ABOUT THIS EPISODE
After years of research, Mark Friedman concluded that much of what he thought he knew about “authentic” Judaism was incorrect.
He argues that Judaism is far closer to classical liberalism than many might assume — and that the idea that traditional Jewish values are inherently at odds with liberal values is fundamentally flawed.
In this episode, we explore the Torah’s liberal values, the role of scripture as an anchor and guide in modern life, and much more.
For more on Mark’s work, see his new book, Come Now Let Us Reason Together: Uncovering the Torah’s Liberal Values.
