Learning a lesson from the Bible

שו"תLearning a lesson from the Bible
שאל לפני 3 שנים

You wrote that the non-halakhic part of the Bible is intended to teach lessons, but that is no longer relevant today, because there are better sources to learn from.
This raises at least two questions.
How was the non-halakhic part relevant for people (not strictly Jewish) who lived a thousand or two thousand years ago but is it not relevant today?
Why are biblical issues such as "Is Jewish-religious rule in the Land of Israel legitimate" or "Is there any interest in Jewish settlement on the land of Israel beyond the commandments" not legitimate for drawing lessons if it is quite clear that a study of the Bible shows that the answers to these two issues are "yes" and "yes"?

I've explained these things dozens of times. There have been columns and books. In the past, the fact is that people learned morality from the Bible. Today, this is not necessary because the lessons have already been learned. Furthermore, no one learns from the Bible anything that they fundamentally disagree with. No one changes any value they espouse because they are convinced that the Bible opposes them. Jewish rule in Palestine is legitimate regardless of the Bible. And is Belgian rule in Belgium illegitimate because it is not written in the Bible? The reality of God and the creation of the world can also be learned from the Bible. We can also learn from it that it is appropriate to be humble and a good person. All of this is known to everyone (perhaps with the help of the Bible in the past) and therefore, at least today, there is no need for the Bible for this. In short, I have often asked readers to bring me examples of something they learned from the Bible, and so far I have not received any. I do not have the energy for this endless and unnecessary discussion.
