Understand the Bible as Never Before with ITSL Membership
Come study the Hebrew Bible with us in its Jewish context, while putting it all in its linguistic and cultural context in the Ancient Near East.
Taught by an orthodox Jewish rabbi and scholar
Rabbi Dr. Clem approaches the Hebrew Bible as sacred literature using a Jewish faith-based approach, while at the same time using a scientific approach to study these ancient texts. The result often leaves a tension as we wrestle to do justice to both approaches in a modern context. Regardless of your faith, come and study the Bible and ancient Semitic languages with us.
