Inspired by the approaches of Rambam, Rabbi Samson Raphael Hirsch, and other leading Jewish thinkers, the author analyzes both narrative and halachic areas of the Torah’s teachings. Drawing on a wide range of sources, he examines a number of challenges posed to Orthodox Judaism from the halls of academia and addresses them from the perspective of Jewish tradition.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"box-sizing: border-box; outline: none; padding-top: 0px; border: 0px; font-variant-numeric: inherit; font-variant-east-asian: inherit; font-stretch: inherit; line-height: 24px;\"\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"box-sizing: border-box; outline: none; padding-top: 0px; border: 0px; font-variant-numeric: inherit; font-variant-east-asian: inherit; font-stretch: inherit; line-height: 24px;\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: #006600; font-size: small;\"\u003eAbout the Author:\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"box-sizing: border-box; outline: none; padding-top: 0px; border: 0px; font-variant-numeric: inherit; font-variant-east-asian: inherit; font-stretch: inherit; line-height: 24px;\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: #006600; font-size: small;\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"box-sizing: border-box; outline: none; margin: 0px; padding: 0px; border: 0px; font-style: inherit; font-variant: inherit; font-stretch: inherit; line-height: inherit; font-family: inherit; vertical-align: top; font-weight: 700 !important;\"\u003eRabbi Shmuel Phillips\u003c\/span\u003e has spent almost two decades studying in yeshiva and kollel.
