Torah and Science – Dr. Sandra Lilienthal

Event Navigation

Are the ancient wisdom of the Torah and the modern discoveries of science locked in an inevitable
conflict, or can they actually complement and enrich each other? In this session, we will explore the fascinating intersection of faith and science through four models of engagement and also examine how traditional Jewish thought engages with scientific inquiry through analysis of rabbinic views from Talmud to modern times.


IN-PERSON at B’nai Torah Congregation and on Zoom
