Daniel Boyarin is far from the typical Orthodox Jew.
A professor at the University of California at Berkeley, Boyarin is a renowned Talmudic scholar and Shabbat-observant Orthodox Jew.
But he’s also an ardent advocate for the LGBT community and an avowed hater of Israel.
Despite the Zionist ideals of his youth, today Boyarin is a self-declared anti-Zionist and proud supporter of the BDS movement, which denies Jewish people the right to self-determination.
Boyarin lived in Israel for years, but since returning to the US in 1990 he has refused to speak with Israeli media outlets. This week, Channel 10 managed to secure the first ever interview with Boyarin by an Israeli news organization.
He's not quite orthodox, never was. Was conservative, jts, although he may be frum relative to other conservative.
ReplyDeleteYeah, I read one of his books. The subject was unrelated to Israel but I lost count of "Israel is just like the Nazis" references that popped up anyway.
