MORE THAN JUST WORDS

from Deeper Look At The Parsha · host Rabbi Pini Dunner

The Ten Commandments are among the most famous words in history—and among the least detailed. As Rabbi Dunner explains, this is no accident. By exploring Martin Luther’s literalism, Jewish history’s rejection of text-only faith, and the role of Torah Shebaal Peh, he shows why Judaism insists that sacred words come alive only through interpretation, debate, responsibility, and lived commitment.
