In this period after the New Year we thought it appropriate to share this four part series of lectures by Zohar Raviv on Jewish thought and Life. This is a very special series by a very wonderful educator and friend. Dr. Zohar Raviv is a world-renowned educator of Judaism, whose academic and professional experience span Israel, North-America, Europe, South-Africa and Australia. Raviv holds a B.A in Land of Israel Studies (Bar-Ilan University), a Joint M.A in Jewish Thought and Education (Brandeis University), as well as an M.A in Near-Eastern Studies and a Ph.D in Jewish Thought and Mysticism (University of Michigan, Ann Arbor).
Raviv recently assumed the position of Chief Education Officer for Taglit-Birthright Israel, after finishing his tenure as Assistant professor of Jewish Studies at Oberlin College (Ohio). These are a series of videos of the first session of 4 lectures that Dr. Raviv is presenting on Key Paradigms of Jewish Thought and Life. This first one is on The Evolving “One” : Ideas of God in Jewish Discourse. It is both fascinating and thought provoking. He provides a variety of approaches in understanding the Philosophical, Theological, and Religious implications in the origin of the “Jewish” God. “Eventually the human mind will express the necessity of “One”.
