“Short synopsis of each parsha without going too deep into the inherent conflicts that they often bring up. Generally presents a decidedly conservative view aka politically conservative view and presents it as “correct” without showing how the opposite view is also “correct.” Whether this is also...”Read full review »

“Michael Hatton’s Crises and Kings series is excellent! I came across this series while listening to another podcast and it has become a favorite. I find myself jumping back and forth in various texts and taking notes of my findings. Michael is a good tour guide! I hope he will keep producing more…….”

“What a great series. Rabbi Hattin brings out all the nuance the Book of Samuel has to offer with his close reading of the text. Many themes, allusions, etc that I wasn’t aware of. I hope he does other series on other books of the Bible.”

“I have been listening to Michael Hattons’ series, crises and kings, about the book of Samuel and I am getting so much out of it! He moves at a slow and deliberate pace, reviewing the previous each week for a few minutes at the beginning of each podcast and summarizing at the end. He brings in the...”Read full review »

“Actually, the Pardes Institute is not on Mount Zion, but it's close enough. For all seriously studious Jews (and non-Jews curious about what serious Judaism looks like), orthodox and liberal, religious or secular. Each week's Torah portion analyzed and elaborated upon by one of the...”Read full review »
