This week, we delve into Abram's pivotal experience in Genesis, exploring the possibility that his encounter with God was a powerful vision rather than a literal conversation. We'll consider if the promises of land and descendants unfolded within his mind, a projection of his subconscious desires.

Join us as we examine this alternative perspective and its potential implications for understanding this foundational moment in biblical history and its significance for Jews and Judaism, drawing a comparison with Paul's vision of Christ and the emergence of Christianity.
