Episode Synopsis

"A good name is better than fragrant oil," says the book of Proverbs, so why does Noah's wife, the second Eve, mother of a new world, go unnamed in the Torah?
In this class, we explore a number of ancient attempts (and some medieval and modern as well) to redress this missing mrs. What can we learn from such an attempt to recover what's been lost and to bring to the fore what's been left aside? Tune in to find out!
