2024 Book Festival: Abigail Pogrebin & Rabbi Dov Linzer

ABIGAIL POGREBIN & RABBI DOV LINZER  
It Takes Two to Torah: An Orthodox Rabbi and Reform Journalist Discuss and Debate Their Way Through the Five Books of Moses

Sunday, November 10 | 4:00 PM
In conversation with Norri Leder

For two years, Orthodox rabbi and respected writer and scholar Dov Linzer, and acclaimed journalist and author Abigail Pogrebin, a Reform Jew, came together for an instructive, irreverent and sometimes emotional podcast for Tablet Magazine. While they often disagreed with each other in these 10-minute exchanges, they talked through the Five Books of Moses with candor, humor and a genuine respect for each other and their listeners. Now, those lively and popular conversations have been collected and edited into an easy-to-understand and surprisingly absorbing exploration of the Torah for readers to indulge.
