Understanding Names of God #3: Ain Sof

Where did the mystical term “Ain Sof” come from? What does it actually mean? Can a Torah scroll be written in Greek? And who were the mysterious Bythosim (or Boethusians) that the Sages considered heretics and sectarians? Find out in this eye-opening class as we continue our journey into exploring the divine names of God. Plus: How did Noah’s blessing to Shem and Japheth become realized in Israel and Greece, and what effect did Plato and Aristotle have on sacred Jewish texts?
