Reply To: After completing this course, do you agree with the statement, “Hebraic Thought is the greatest intellectual tradition in the history of humanity.” Why or why not?

Yes, thanks to this short course -it is clear to me that the Hebrew Scriptures are singular in the consistency of its wisdom, clarity and sophistication. It is unbelievable that a small group of Semitic people living in the desert could come up with such a comprehensive set of knowledge which covers all the essential elements of what it is to be a human being in this world. The preservation of the ancient writings is another miracle in itself. It is very challenging to find another source of ancient tradition which has impacted the world in such a positive and comprehensive way.
