Where does One Encounter the Divine? Dialogue Between the Sexes in the Talmud

Hosted By: Oxford Interfaith Forum

In order to demonstrate the spirit of the Talmud, at least that which is represented by the creators of the Aggadah literature, I will focus on the literary works related to the emotional and sexual relations between the wife and her husband (BT Ketubut, 62b). Literary aspects of this masterpiece have already been considered by researchers in the past, but my analysis will serve as a general background through which we will try to penetrate to the heart of the work in order to feel the unambiguous non-dualistic theological message that is conveyed to the reader.
