Rambam Bekius

Listener Question on the 13 Middos she'ha'Torah Nidreshes Ba'hen

Rabbi Matt Schneeweiss Season 12 Episode 8

Have any questions, insights, or feedback? Send me a text!

Length: 15 minutes 24 seconds
Synopsis: Today we take up another question from a different listener. Unbeknownst to the listener, this question cuts deep to the core of a HUGE machlokess between the Rambam and the Ramban about the nature of the Torah text and Rabbinic authority. Although we aren't going to delve TOO deeply into this, I do want to use this as an opportunity to provide an outline of what the Rambam holds Chazal are doing when they apply the 13 hermeneutical principles.
