About Me
My dissertation supervised by Prof. Ed Greenstein was awarded the Churgin award for best dissertation in Bible in 2009. I have lectured regularly in SBL conferences over the last six years usually in sessions dealing with biblical stylistics and biblical theology, my two primary areas of interest. My book "Human Choice" (Heb.) published by Magnes press presents a new approach to biblical theology focusing on the role of human choice in the biblical narrative. My Bible courses at Bar Ilan, both in the School for Basic Jewish Studies and in the Bible department, are very popular, as testified by many teaching surveys and by my being awarded outstanding lecturer twice at Bar Ilan. I make it my goal to emphasize both methodology and pedagogy in my teaching and strive to endear and elevate the study of Bible amongst my students
