Hebrew Bible (Tanakh)
Question
Hello to our teacher Rabbi Michael Abraham, may he live long and well. Your lack of fondness for the Hebrew Bible (Tanakh) is well known, but in your opinion what did the Sages see in books dealing with power struggles, wars, and various plots, that made them sacred books?
Answer
I don’t know. It wasn’t the Sages, but the prophets who wrote them.
