“Documentary Hypothesis”
With Rabbi Ari Sollish
Recorded live at The Torah Center ATL on Sunday, June 23, 2024
In a far away land, not too long ago, some scholars gathered and came up with a new theory. The theory was that the bible was not authored by a Single, Divine Authority, but was rather the product of a number of mortal authors, whose disparate work was subsequently cobbled together to form a whole work.
This theory became known as the Documentary Hypothesis.
One of the key drivers of this theory is the anomaly well-known to anyone who's studied the bible in its original Hebrew: the use of multiple names for G-d. Why would multiple names be used for a Single G-d? Must be, these scholars suppose, that these names are artifacts of diverse authorship.
Unless, of course, these different names actually mean something...
In this mind-expanding session of Kabbalah Café we explore original sources to discover what Jewish mysticism has to say about the different names of G-d. Far from being arbitrary, each of G-d's names is precise, and reflects another Truth of the Source.
The Torah Center ATL takes pride in offering innovative, inclusive, and impactful educational programs to all. People from a diverse spectrum of life find the Torah Center to be a warm and non-judgmental community in which to experience the richness and authenticity of Jewish learning and heritage.
