<HTML>Shalom
Hope all is well with you. I have been enjoying this list immensely.
Two questions:
1) A student of mine recently asked me why I believe specifically in the
God of Israel. How would you articulate an answer?
2) Another student read the Gemara in Sukkah 29a regarding solar eclipses
as a siman kelalah. He asked why we should believe this Gemara, now that
we know that solar eclipses are a completely natural and predictable
occurrence. How would you answer this question in a classroom?
Thank you very much, and kol tuv
