  • AI and Torah Codes: Unlocking the Hidden Messages of the Bible - Rabbi Moshe Zeldman
    2025/04/06

    How would you
    define the concept of Torah Codes? Are they truly hidden messages, or are they
    patterns we impose on the text?

    What is the
    historical basis for the belief in Torah Codes? Do we find early sources
    mentioning this idea?

    What are some of
    the most compelling examples of Torah Codes that have been discovered?

    Skeptics argue
    that similar patterns can be found in other texts. How do you respond to these
    critiques?

    Are Torah Codes
    meant to be a proof of divine authorship, or do they serve another purpose?

    Can AI be used to
    find Torah Codes more effectively than humans? If so, what are the
    implications?

    AI can now
    generate texts that mimic human writing. Could it one-day produce something
    that appears as intricate as the Torah?

    Could AI be used
    to uncover deeper layers of Torah wisdom that were previously inaccessible?

    If AI can predict
    patterns in human behavior, does this challenge the Jewish understanding of
    free will?

    Could AI one day
    be advanced enough to serve as a “halachic authority,” or will halachic ruling
    always require human judgment?

    Looking ahead, do
    you see AI and Torah Codes playing a greater role in Jewish outreach and belief
    in the divine origins of the Torah?

    Can you give us a brief introduction
    to Don Isaac Abarbanel and his historical significance?

    How did Abarbanel view the conversos
    and what was his relationship with the?

    What role did the Abarbanel play in
    the Spanish expulsion of 1492, and how did it shape his writings?

    The Abarbanel was both a statesman
    and a Torah scholar. How did these two roles influence each other?

    unique style. How do they differ from those of other commentaries like Rashi,
    Ramban, or the Ibn Ezra?

    consistently in Abarbanel’s biblical commentaries?

    What are some of the innovative
    Chidushim found in the Abarbanel’s Tanach commentaries?

    The Abarbanel opens his Zevach
    Pesach with a series of deep questions. What is his approach to
    understanding the Haggadah?

    How does Abarbanel’s interpretation
    of Ma Nishtana differ from traditional explanations?

    What does the Abarbanel say about
    the concept of Yetziat Mitzrayim as an eternal lesson?

    How did the Abarbanel’s works
    influence later Jewish commentators and thinkers?

    Are there any elements of his
    thought that remain especially relevant in modern Jewish life?

    What are some lesser-known works of
    the Abarbanel that deserve more attention?

    What challenges did he face in
    writing Torah commentaries while navigating a turbulent political career?

    If the Abarbanel were alive today,
    what do you think he would say about Jewish continuity and exile?
