Listen "Judaism in the 21st Century: The Pilot (S1, E1)"
Episode Synopsis
The global landscape is intricate and multifaceted. It brims with advanced technology, intricate political discourse, and complex moral quandaries. In the United States, religion's significance in daily life is gradually diminishing. To a certain extent, all of us are susceptible to the "hubris of the present era." This means that we often believe our viewpoints hold the utmost wisdom due to our existence in the current moment. However, humans inhabited the Earth long before our time, and in many instances, their lack of exposure to constant stimuli like social media, news, and contemporary politics allowed historical thinkers the leisure to contemplate life deeply.
The writings and teachings of the past possess profound insights into today's predicaments, perhaps more so than initially apparent. Judaism in the 21st Century delves into today's challenges while filtering them through the prism of past teachings. Remarkably, the wisdom imparted by our predecessors can illuminate pathways for navigating the complexities of modern existence with a clarity that might surpass expectations.
This podcast embarks on a journey through contemporary issues, harnessing the wisdom of bygone days. We will explore how the sagacious minds of yore offer perspectives that can enrich our lives in the present, and occasionally, supply us with a revitalized perspective that resonates more profoundly than anticipated.
Please accompany Rabbi Daniel Cohen and Dr. Steven Labkoff as they traverse the challenges of contemporary life, drawing inspiration from the sagas of Jewish wisdom spanning history. No subject is off limits. Our discussions will range from contentious topics like firearm regulation and ethical standards in business to strategies for handling social media and the role of prayer in today's societal fabric, among numerous others.
In our inaugural episode, we will dissect the dwindling influence of religion in the American landscape.
We invite you to join us on a weekly expedition into Judaism in the 21st Century.
