Jewish Philosophy - ep 30 | Rabbi Berkovits

Описание: Join Rosh Yeshiva Rabbi Yitzchak Berkovits for a deep and illuminating journey into Jewish Philosophy — and how it fundamentally differs from classical Western thought.

In this powerful class, Rabbi Berkovits explores the assumptions that shape Western philosophy—individualism, abstract reasoning, and human-centered truth—and contrasts them with the core ideas of Jewish thought, where truth emerges from revelation, relationship, responsibility, and the lived experience of a people connected to God.

Discover:
✨ Why Western philosophy starts with the question “What is true?”
✨ Why Jewish philosophy begins with “What is my responsibility?”
✨ How revelation, prophecy, and mesorah redefine the pursuit of wisdom
✨ Why Judaism focuses less on abstract speculation and more on transforming the human being
✨ The unique role of mitzvot, covenant, and divine relationship in shaping Jewish understanding

Rabbi Berkovits brings clarity, depth, and relevance to concepts that often feel abstract or academic. Whether you're new to philosophy or already love Jewish thought, this class will give you a fresh way to understand what makes Torah wisdom so unique.
