            <title><![CDATA[Approaching God in Jewish Philosophy with Rabbi Shmuel Phillips]]></title>
            <description><![CDATA[<p>In this podcast, Rabbi Phillips author of '<em>Judaism Reclaimed', </em>discusses the different ways of approaching God in Jewish philosophy. Rabbi Phillips focuses on Rav Hirsch's criticism of Maimonides' intellectual approach to God.</p>
<p>Rabbi Shmuel Phillips has spent almost two decades studying in yeshiva and kollel. During this time, he has also completed a law degree from the University of London. His book 'Judaism Reclaimed' examines a range of theological and philosophical discussions emerging from the Torah. Inspired by the approaches of Rambam, Rabbi Samson Raphael Hirsch, and other leading Jewish thinkers, the author analyzes both narrative and halachic areas of the Torah’s teachings. Drawing on a wide range of sources, he examines a number of challenges posed to Orthodox Judaism from the halls of academia and addresses them from the perspective of Jewish tradition. A link to the book's website can be found here: https://judaismreclaimed.com/. Rabbi Phillips also hosts a lively Facebook page with discussions on Jewish philosophy which can be found here https://www.facebook.com/groups/JudaismReclaimed/</p>

            <description><![CDATA[<p>In this podcast, Rabbi Dr. Harris explains the various classical and contemporary solutions to the problem of evil and how these ideas can be found in traditional Jewish sources such as the book of Job (Iyov) and the Talmud. Rabbi Dr. Harris pays particular attention to the more recent notion of 'Skeptical theism Theism' which is the thesis that we should be skeptical about our ability to understand why there is so much evil and suffering in the world.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;</p>
<p>Rabbi Dr. Harris was born in London and has been rabbi of the Hampstead Synagogue since 1995. Prior to this he was rabbi of the Southend and Westcliff community. He has semicha from the Israeli Chief Rabbinate and holds a PhD in philosophy from London University. He additionally studied philosophy as an undergraduate at Cambridge and completed his masters in philosophy and Jewish thought at Hebrew University.&nbsp;</p>
