Rabbi Shais Taub

The story of Adam and Eve isn't just about two people, it's about all of us. When they ate from the Tree of Knowledge, something deep within the human psyche shifted. This moment in Eden shaped the roots of shame, morality, and self-consciousness. Adam and Eve weren't primitive, they were spiritual giants. So what really changed? And why are we still living with the consequences today?

Rabbi Efraim Palvanov

Why does the Hebrew alphabet begin with an Aleph? Why does the Torah begin with a letter Beit? What role did the divine Hebrew letters have in Creation? What is God’s “seal of truth”, and what is God’s “sceptre”? Why do we find pagan death cults in countries and cultures all over the world? And what is the missing “nun” verse in Psalm 145? Find out in this class as we unravel a fascinating ancient Midrash about the letters of the Hebrew alphabet presenting themselves before God at the start of Creation.

Also: Did God really command Abraham to sacrifice his son, and did Abraham pass the test? What really happened with the Tree of Knowledge? And why does evil exist?

What spiritual message lies beneath it — and how does it still affect our world today?
Join us on this incredible journey from Gan Eden to Noach and beyond — uncovering how the land mirrors the soul of man, and how our spiritual growth shapes creation itself.
