Rabbi Josh Yuter, a renowned Torah scholar and teacher, takes us on a journey through the world of "Sacred Slogans." These are phrases and idioms taken from the Torah and Talmud that have been appropriated to promote various agendas. But what makes them so powerful is that they are infused with the cultural weight of religious authority. We begin by exploring the concept of "Tzelem Elokim" or "Imago Dei," which asserts that all human beings are created in the image of God. Rabbi Yuter explains how this idea is more complex than it seems and what it means in the context of Biblical and Rabbinic sources. We then move on to discuss "70 Faces of Torah" and "Eilu Va'Eilu Divrei Elokim Hayyim," which are often cited in defense of pluralism. However, Rabbi Yuter explains how these idioms actually define the limits of pluralism. Next, we delve into the origins and meaning of "Ohr Lagoyim" or "Light unto the Nations." Rabbi Yuter addresses the extent to which Torah is concerned with how Jews are perceived by gentiles. Moving on to a modern-day Sacred Slogan, we examine the phrase "A Jew is a Jew" and how it relates to identity and inclusion in Jewish communal life. We also discuss the Biblical commandment to "love the stranger," which is often invoked in the context of immigration and refugee policy. But Torah comes with its own regulations, which Rabbi Yuter explains. Lastly, we explore the most ubiquitous of the Sacred Slogans, "Tikkun Olam," and how it was implemented by the tradition which coined the term. Join us as we unpack these Sacred Slogans and gain a deeper understanding of their origins, meanings, and implications. --- Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/judaismdemystified/support

Longstanding Kosher Rules in Israel Being Challenged December 6, 2021 – Israel's new governing coalition does not include ultra-Orthodox parties for the first time in a half century, causing a push to loosen longstanding food certification, religious and social policies. “In America, you have no guidelines on who says what is kosher,” said Rabbi Josh Yuter, considered the world's largest Jewish influence. “In Israel it's completely different, in order for you to claim your establishment was kosher, you had to have the official Rabbinut body certify you.”

Prof. Carmen Joy Imes joins us to delve into the idea of being created "in the image of God." What's that mean? Who exactly is in God's image? Did we lose it with the "fall"? Does it have moral and ethnical ramifications for us today? Do some traditional understandings of being "in the image" exclude people with various disabilities? Is Adam whose name means earth more akin to God or to earth? Also a magical creature, a wild etymological adventure, and some thoughts about how we evaluate traditional interpretations.
