Orthodox Atheism? The Thought of Yeshayahu Leibowitz

with Dr. Daniel Rynhold

Wednesdays, October 28, November 4, 11, 18, December 2, 9

6:30 – 8:00 PM

Can you combine an absolute commitment to the mitzvot with a denial of any purpose to human history? Ardent Zionism with disbelief that it has any religious significance? 


Yeshayahu Leibowitz, one of Judaism’s most controversial and provocative intellectuals, did. In this course, we will discover how the professor of biochemistry and neurophysiology at the Hebrew University managed such apparent contradictions.

The Skirball Academy is currently offering classes virtually (over Zoom) for fall 2020.
