Get StartedThe Birth of Technology (Part 76 of 76)
Genesis Unveiled
Rabbi Fohrman concludes this series with a discussion of creativity of any kind, especially technology – how do we deal with a technological society, and who is hurt by technology? We are brought back to Pharaoh and reminded that through technology, the Israelites were enslaved. Related ideas and themes are recorded in the series: "Does the Book of Ruth Matter?"
For a more in depth version of Genesis Unveiled, we recommend listening to A Brief History Of The World: From Adam To Abraham, the first of four sets of lecture series that span the entire book of Genesis! Be sure to listen to it all! The remaining sets of lecture series are: Abraham's Journey 1, Abraham's Journey 2, and Jacob: Man of Truth?
