Ep. 392: Yirmiyahu Ch. 36 by Rabbi Dr Sam Lebens | An incendiary chapter in which Yirmyahu writes his prophecy on a scroll to be presented to Yehoyakim and other nobility.

An incendiary chapter in which Yirmyahu writes his prophecy on a scroll to be presented to Yehoyakim and other nobility. The scroll is burnt, but is then rewritten! An outstanding audio from Rabbi Dr Sam Lebens, dear friend and teacher of philosophy at University of Haifa. In his brief audio he manages to compare prophecy to a free media, introduce us to open theology and Gersonides, guide us through the exciting narrative of the chapter and present an elegant parallel and difference to Moshe's two tablets - of last week's parsha fame -with Yirmiyahu's two scrolls. We'll be hearing more from Sam on Yirmiyahu - and if you just can't wait, Sam also writes a weekly dvar torah at www.samlebens.com/blog - you should read and subscribe! https://www.sefaria.org/Jeremiah.36
