How the (Seemingly) Outdated Elements of Torah Are Evidence of Its Perfection (Part 2)
Show Notes

[Note: If you have not yet listened to Part 1, it is critical that you listen to it first!]

In today's Lomdeha Friday Seminar (3/12/21) we continued discussing the topic we raised last week, focusing on the last three out of the seven premises enumerated last time, with one final premise thrown in for good measure. All three premises are rooted in the Rambam's view on how Hashem works with human nature instead of against it, and a large part of today's shiur was spent reading and discussing the chapter of the Guide for the Perplexed in which he elucidates this idea.
