A Discussion on the Torah's Liberal Values with Mark D Friedman

Mark’s book, 'Come Now, Let Us Reason Together,' has really sparked conversations in Jewish studies circles, not only for its thoughtful approach but also for challenging assumptions about what Judaism stands for in the modern world. It’s pretty remarkable how the book continues to reach readers interested in the intersection of tradition and progress. When Mark speaks about his journey from law and philosophy into a serious study of Judaism, his stories resonate with anyone who has ever re-examined inherited beliefs. He’s been applauded by leaders like Ari Ackerman at the Schechter Institute for making complex subjects clear and relatable. Mark has a gift for illustrating how ancient traditions can inform present-day choices, especially around ethical dilemmas and community. James Lott Jr DD has a very interesting discussion with Mark!
