In this video, we delve into the intriguing historical figures of Hillel and Shammai, renowned rabbis from the first century CE. These two eminent scholars have long been celebrated as pillars of Jewish thought, with their teachings and debates often used by Messianics to interpret the New Testament and by traditional Judaisms to establish Jewish Halachah.
However, the contentions put forth in this video challenge the conventional wisdom surrounding Hillel and Shammai. I takes an unorthodox position, asserting that the narratives and laws associated with these two figures have been attached over time, creating a perception of legitimacy because they bear the names of ancient rabbis.
Are these attributions truly representative of the historical Hillel and Shammai? The video explores the notion that these revered figures may not have said or taught many of the things attributed to them. Join me as we question the narratives and traditions associated with Hillel and Shammai, seeking a fresh perspective on their legacy.
