Parsha & Prose with Rabbi Gemara: The Torah Portion of Noah through the Lense of 'The Circle" (Audio)
Manage episode 447538235 series 3535670
In this week’s podcast, we’ll explore the intriguing parallels between the Torah portion of Noah and Dave Eggers’ novel, The Circle. Both narratives grapple with themes of isolation and the consequences of humanity’s choices. In the story of Noah, we witness a world consumed by corruption, leading to divine intervention and a fresh start, albeit at a steep cost. Similarly, The Circle presents a society ensnared by the allure of technology and constant connectivity, where the pursuit of transparency clashes with individual privacy and freedom. As we delve into these texts, we’ll reflect on how both highlight the delicate balance between community and isolation, urging us to consider the implications of our actions in shaping the future.
