The Rambam and the Maharal on Jewish Identity: Part 2

The views of the Rambam and the Maharal were far apart on many issues. In this episode we continue the discussion regarding their perspectives on Jewish identity. They demonstrate the variety of entrees at the theological Smorgasbord that constitutes Jewish theology. Rabbi Abraham Joshua Heschel was once asked to explain the Jewish view on a particular topic. Rabbi Heschel explained that there was not a single Jewish view. Judaism, he explained, was like a deep river with many streams and many tributaries.
