Food and Culture

Professor Pinchas Shir joins me to talk about food and the Bible. What was the Israelite diet like? How does food shape cultural identity? Where do we go to look at food issues (hint: it's practically on every page!). How did the Israelites think about animals as food vs. plants as food?
