In this episode, we take a more careful look at how Rashi uses the parsha system in his commentary. How much of a factor is this in Rashi? We similarly examine why it is so important to maintain a connection to the classic understanding of Tanach. We also examine the issue of how to understand the writing of Tanach.

Understanding Pshat 54:57

In this episode we examine the claims that Rashi’s commentary to Tanach isn’t a Pshat based commentary. How should we view the concept that we should attempt to understand Tanach only via the text of Tanach? Who was the originator of this idea? What does this tell us about this conception? What makes Rashi’s accomplishments in Tanach unparalleled? How seriously have Talmidai Chachomim throughout the generations taken Rashi’s commentary to Chumash?

In this episode we look at Carter’s Israeli admirers and what was motivating them to admire him. Why were they so deeply moved by this quixotic figure? We go back to the issue of Midrashim and Mesora and flesh out the issues more. When can we say there is an absolute Mesora about an issue? We also look at the issue of did Ashkenazi Rishonim learn Midrashim that seem to humanize G-d literally? Is this fundamental of Judaism an invention of the Rambam?
