Torah interpretation

שו"תTorah interpretation
שאל לפני 2 שנים

Hello Rabbi,
I once asked how evolution fits in with the Torah, and you said that the Torah does not give us historical information.
I thought about it and in itself it works out very well and I'm ready to accept it,
The point is, isn't it a bit problematic to interpret the Torah so that it fits with science?
You gave the proof with Rashi, although it is puzzling why the story of creation was written at all, but in general this is not what is taught from childhood, from religious state schools to Jewish schools and yeshivahs, at least from what I have experienced. I also believe that if I turn to a typical religious person, he will tell me that this is the history of the Jewish people, at least that is how he was taught… I am interested in what rabbis like Rabbi Kanievsky and Rabbi Ovadia would say about this. After all, if the Torah does not give us historical information, how come they did not think so even before the study of evolution?

I wrote to you that they thought so long before evolution (the Rambam, for example, at least about the creation parables. The Rambam says that there are parables in the Torah that are a parable or a dream. He also writes about the legends of the Sages that anyone who interprets them factually is a fool). As for what is being taught, I suggest asking those who are teaching this. The same goes for the rabbis. It's worth asking them. I'm expressing my opinion, not theirs.
