Rabbi Moshe Silberschein joins me at the podcast table to talk about the complex layers of history that formed his identity--from growing up in a Jewish neighborhood near Detroit to reckoning with the ramifications of the holocaust. It is his intense curiosity and love of the biblical and rabbinic text that keeps him in the academic world teaching Jewish and Christian students alike. But in an interesting turn of events, a course on the parables of Jesus became Rabbi Moshe's favorite course to teach.
From an early age, Rabbi Moshe was fascinated with the original languages of the biblical and rabbinic texts. He has traveled around the world and worked with many congregations, but teaching in the classroom is one of his favorite vocations. He is a well loved professor at Jerusalem University College where he developed a course titled The Parables of Jesus and Jewish Meshalim, which became a favorite course to teach.
