Description

In this fascinating conversation with Dr. Malka Simkovich, we analyze the figure of Yosef and his complex personality through the lens of the biblical story and Second Temple literature.

This episode is part of Matan’s Bereshit series titled Choseness and Choices. The book of Bereshit is propelled forward by God’s chosen representatives: Adam, Noach, Avraham, Yitzchak, Yaakov, but these messengers impact the world because of the choices they make. It is the nexus between being chosen and the human choices that actualize the divine will in the world that is explored in this series.
