Adam, Eve and the Serpent are familiar to us from childhood, yet the meaning of their story seems maddeningly elusive. For example, why did God prohibit our eating of the Tree of Knowledge of Good and Evil? Did He really not want mankind to be able to distinguish right from wrong? In this series of lectures, Rabbi Fohrman takes us back to the Eden story, revealing progressively deeper layers of meaning. In the end, listeners gain an experience in the richness and depth of Torah, and a profound confrontation with concepts that define the core of what it means to be a Jew.
