An excellent podcast with Ḥakham Dr. Moshe Firrouz. In this episode of Bein HaKorah (Yad Ben-Zvi), Dr. Yaniv Mazuman hosts him for a deep discussion on Eshkol haKofer by Yehuda Hadassi, a key 12th-century Karaite work. The talk explores Hadassi’s sources, Karaite-Rabbanite influences, Kalam and Muʿtazila ideas, theology, theodicy, resurrection, and his anti-Christian polemics, as well as the Avelei Tzion movement.
