The Sages nearly censored Kohelet out of Tanakh due to their concerns over its often contradictory messages regarding life and wisdom. How did they ultimately reconcile themselves to its theological influence?

This Stanley Rudoff Memorial High Holidays Lecture, taught by Rabbi Hayyim Angel, is sponsored by the extended Rudoff family in memory of Stanley Rudoff z”’l.

It was originally recorded on 09/10/2013.
