The religious person in the modern world, especially the academic world, lives under fire. In every area his views are assailed as outmoded and anachronistic. In the scientific arena, in particular, new discoveries and theories constantly call into question traditional notions. In response, a new literary genre has arisen offering innovative approaches to issues of religion and science. Jewish writers have not been left behind. Torah, Chazal & Science is a unique contribution to this discussion in its emphasis on faithfulness to the Mesorah - the system of beliefs passed down from generation to generation - and on appreciation for the profundity of Chazal (the sages of the Talmud). The author's thesis is that valid solutions can come only from within the Torah's own framework. Moreover, remaining true to the classic sources is the best way to let the Torah's light shine forth. Authentic Torah sells itself. Through this book the reader will gain a new appreciation for the Torah's truth and beauty.

Topics include, among others, the shape of the earth, astrology and horoscopes, development of the fetus, and medicine. A detailed index and table of contents included.

The perfect Torah is the medium through which the one, unique God makes himself known. The Judaic statement of monotheism comes to expression in Scripture as perfected by the Oral Torah in its native category-formations, Halakhah, norms of behavior, and Aggadah norms of belief. The Halakhah of the oral Torah conveys monotheism in a philosophical mode, and the Aggadah, monotheism in a mythic mode. What is perfect about the dual Torah, written and oral, is the perfect match between the message and the medium, Halakhah for the philosophical monotheism, Aggadah for the mythic statement of the same monotheism. Chapters One and Two explain the former, Chapters Three and Four the latter. The question answered here concerns how one canonical corpus perfects its companion and produces in consequence perfection: the realization of the initial intent and program of the Written by the Oral Torah. That is addressed by the construction of large exemplary structures of comparison and contrast in the shank of the book. Four principles are established: [1] the perfection through the systematization of the law of the Written Torah by the Oral Torah, in Chapter One; [2] the perfection of the medium of the Halakhah for the message of philosophical monotheism, in Chapter Two; [3] the perfection of Scripture's anomalous writings through the dismantling of one document and the systematic recasting of another, in Chapter Three; [4] the perfection of the medium of Aggadah in its form of narrative for the message of theology concerning God's personality and activity, in Chapter Four.

How should traditional Judaism view the incredible accomplishments and progress made by modern science? In this volume, the authors argue that not only is a unification and integration between Torah and science possible, it is necessary and indeed one of the most important goals traditional Judaism should pursue in this generation. In fact, the well-known adage by the sages, "Believe that there is wisdom among the nations" is interpreted, following the original Hebrew, to mean that those who are capable of doing so have a duty to bring the wisdom of the nations to a state of belief, a state in which it reveals rather than conceals the Creator. To do so, the Divinity inherent in nature and man, must be revealed. Over the past century and a half there have been various approaches and attempts to find a formula for unifying Torah and science. Relying on Rabbi Ginsburgh's singular knowledge of the Torah's inner dimension--Kabbalah and Chassidut--it is explained how the wisdom of the nations, i.e., modern science in all its forms, can be seen as still underdeveloped points of light that are missing dimensions of meaning that would transform them into translucent windows through which we can gaze upon the magnificence of God and the Torah. The process by which secular wisdom is transformed and becomes part of Torah is compared to the process which transforms a non-Jew wishing into a righteous convert--making him or her into an inseparable part of the Jewish people. This approach is based on the foundational notion that originally, Torah and science, or higher, Divine wisdom, and lower, mundane wisdom constituted a single, unified whole known as the primordial Torah. Subsequently they were separated by the Almighty Himself into two different categories, just as the waters were divided into the higher and lower waters on the second day of creation. Over the millennia, the greatest of the sages have labored to reunify the two categories: study of the Divine and the study of nature and humanity, even as the knowledge of nature changed from age to age. As we approach the end of the sixth millennia, we are called upon to work towards a unifying model that can bring Torah and science to complement and inspire one another.

Modern physics has forever changed the way we view and understand physical reality. With a wide spectrum of theories, from general relativity to quantum mechanics, our conceptions of the very big and the very small are no longer intuitively obvious. Many philosophers, even scientists have expressed the opinion that the counterintuitive conclusions posited in modern physics are best understood using spiritual terminology. In the 11 lectures in this volume, Harav Ginsburgh, one of our generation's foremost scholars, innovators, and teachers of Kabbalah, reveals how modern physics reflects foundational concepts in the Torah's inner dimension. A wide range of topics from relativity (special and general), quantum mechanics, and string theory are addressed. Elegantly and gracefully, Harav Ginsburgh's exposition of the topics switches back and forth between the scientific and Torah perspectives. With his deep insight, Harav Ginsburgh gives even well-known physical concepts a refreshing and new treatment. Apart from carefully drawing parallels and correspondences between the Torah's inner dimension and modern physics, in these lectures, Harav Ginsburgh proposes new directions for scientific research into important areas such as a unified field theory, CPT symmetry, the relationship between acceleration and gravitation, and the possibility of uncovering additional dimensions in physical reality, demonstrating how the Torah's depth can be used to fertilize science and further our understanding of nature.
