Bonus Episode: Dan Discusses The Orchard on The History in the Bible

from Judaism Unbound · host Institute for the Next Jewish Future

Dan returns to History in the Bible, hosted by Garry Stephens. This time they discuss best-selling Israeli author Yochi Brandes' novel “The Orchard”. Dan translated the book into English. The novel centres on Rabbi Akiva, the man who forged rabbinic Judaism after the fall of the Temple. Along the way they encounter a host of other rabbis and Paul of Tarsus. They also ponder the difficulties of translation and working out what actually happened in history. For a limited time (starting on March 20th, 2018, as this episode is released), The Orchard is available FOR FREE on Kindle. Get it here.
