  • Torah & Science... friends or enemies? Rabbi Dr Raphael Zarum

    Torah & Science... friends or enemies? Rabbi Dr Raphael Zarum
    Jun 28 2022

    While the Torah is clear that every plant and animal species was individually designed “according to its kind”, Darwin’s theory of evolution states the multitude of species we see today all evolved from just a few original forms. Which is right? And if humans evolved too then how could we have been created “in God’s image?”

    ABOUT Rabbi Dr Raphael Zarum:
    Rabbi Zarum is Dean of LSJS and holds the Rabbi Sacks Chair in Modern Jewish Thought at the school. He is a rabbinic leader, lecturer and author with a passion for teaching traditional Jewish texts and innovative educational programming for young and old. He gained a PhD in Theoretical Physics from King’s College London, leading to the publication of a number of papers on Quantum Chaos Theory.
