Jewish History Uncensored


May 7, 2026

In this week's episode, we start properly examining R Menashe of Iliya’s written works. We start by looking at his Sefer on Tanach, Binas HaMikra. We will be able to have a solid understanding of his attitude towards Chazal from this sefer. We also start looking at his first printed work, the Kuntress Pesher Davar. We examine who he is referring to when he divides the Rabbis into three groups. Which groups does he put together? What can we learn from this? Are the Kabbalists he refers to only the Chassidim?

You can now help Rabbi Wittenstien  create new and original content via our non profit  ‘The Jewish History and Tanach Foundation’.
