  • Jerusalem: City of Dreams, City of Sorrows
    1 JERUSALEM: CITY OF DREAMS, CITY OF SORROWS More than ever before, urban historians tell us that global cities tend to look very much alike. For U.S. students. the“ look alike” perspective makes it more difficult to empathize with and to understand cultures and societies other than their own. The admittedly superficial similarities of global cities with U.S. ones leads to misunderstandings and confusion. The multiplicity of cybercafés, high-rise buildings, bars and discothèques, international hotels, restaurants, and boutique retailers in shopping malls and multiplex cinemas gives these global cities the appearances of familiarity. The ubiquity of schools, university campuses, signs, streetlights, and urban transportation systems can only add to an outsider’s “cultural and social blindness.” Prevailing U.S. learning goals that underscore American values of individualism, self-confidence, and material comfort are, more often than not, obstacles for any quick study or understanding of world cultures and societies by visiting U.S. student and faculty.1 Therefore, international educators need to look for and find ways in which their students are able to look beyond the veneer of the modern global city through careful program planning and learning strategies that seek to affect the students in their “reading and learning” about these fertile centers of liberal learning. As the students become acquainted with the streets, neighborhoods, and urban centers of their global city, their understanding of its ways and habits is embellished and enriched by the walls, neighborhoods, institutions, and archaeological sites that might otherwise cause them their “cultural and social blindness.” Jerusalem is more than an intriguing global historical city.

  • Sacrificing Truth: Archaeology and the Myth of Masada
    Sacrificing Truth: Archaeology and The Myth of Masada The Bible and Interpretation http://www.bibleinterp.com/articles/ben-yehuda_masada.shtml Mid-60's Masada excavations forged a past through falsified evidence and concealed facts. By: Nachman Ben-Yehuda (Amherst, NY: Humanity Books, an imprint of Prometheus Books) © 2002 Chapter One Introduction: The Puzzle How do we perceive our culture? How do we understand ourselves as beings in need of meaning? We are socialized into and live in complex cultures from which we extract the very essence of our identity, but at the same time we also construct these cultures. How is this process accomplished? What is the nature of those cultural processes that provide us with symbolic meaning and vitalize our perception of ourselves within our self-structured and regulated social orders? This book is addressed to these issues. One interesting way of exploring cultures is to examine some of the myriad contrasts that characteristically make up cultures. These contrasts set boundaries, which in turn define the variety of the symbolic-moral universes of which complex cultures are made. In turn, these symbolic-moral universes give rise to and support both personal and collective identities. There are many such contrasts, some more profound than others. There are physical contrasts, such as black/white, day/night, sea/land, mountain/valley, and there are socially and morally constructed contrasts, such as good/bad, right/wrong, justice/injustice, trust/betrayal. The contrast we shall focus on in this book is a major and significant one: between truth and falsehood. This contrast cuts across many symbolic-moral universes because it touches a quality to which we attach central importance--that between the genuine and the spurious.

  • Probability, Statistics, and the Talpiot Tomb
    Probability, Statistics, and the Talpiot Tomb Kevin T. Kilty, Ph.D., P.E., Mark Elliott, Ph.D., LCCC, Cheyenne, Wyoming June 10, 2007 Simcha Jacobovici, producer of a popular documentary on the Jesus Family Tomb, hired a statistician, Andrey Feuerverger of the University of Toronto, to determine what probability and statistics might have to say about the issue. Critics have mainly garbled what Feuerverger said, or have mis- understood and misrepresented this work. For example The Jerusalem Post, on February 27, 2007, characterized the results in the following way. The filmmakers asked Andrey Feuerverger . to study the likeli- hood of the cluster of resonant names found in the Talpiot tomb being merely coincidental. He concluded, according to the Dis- covery Channel, that the odds are at least 600 to 1 in favor of the Talpiot Tomb being the Jesus Family Tomb. In other words, the conclusion works 599 times out of 600. This is badly worded. Lay people would read this and conclude that the Jesus Family Tomb is a sure thing; while most statisticians would say that no calculation for such a specific claim is possible. Other scholars connected with the controversy claim that this result is entirely expected and means very little if anything. In fact these critics, without any calculations to back up their assertions, claim that such a collection of names in one tomb is hardly surprising because the names involved are very common. Stephen Pfann, a scholar at the University of the Holy Land, claims on a web document [1], for example, that The names Mary (2x), Joseph/Joseh (2x), Judas and even Je- sus, found in the Talpiot tomb should well be expected there (or in almost any other tomb in the area, for that matter).

  • "The Brain Gain" Introducing New Young Scientists
    "The Brain Gain" Introducing New Young Scientists Talented young scientists like the new recruits proled here, with their fresh ideas and research skills, are the dynamic engines of scientic discovery and progress that enable the Weizmann Institute of Science to retain and enhance its position at the forefront of science. These high-caliber young researchers, who are recruited each year to the tenure-track faculty of the Weizmann Institute – our “brain gain,” are vital to Israel’s future, and key to the role the Weizmann Institute plays in developing Israel’s scientic brain power. They join its community of 250 principal researchers who are not only the leaders of their own labs and in their own elds, but also train more than one-quarter of Israel’s new Ph.D.’s in science and mathematics within the framework of the Institute’s graduate education programs. The Institute has set itself a mission to locate and bring back home the best and brightest young Israeli scientists, and has hired 49 new faculty members since 2005. Their recruitment entails a serious commitment and signicant expenditure to provide them with the advanced tools and nancial backing needed to launch their careers, outt their laboratories, purchase equipment, build their teams, explore new ideas, and establish collaborations. This major investment of funds and resources would not be possible without the support of many friends of the Institute from around the world. In addition, we receive signicant assistance from various programs of the Israel Science Foundation. We are extremely grateful for the vision and generosity of these supporters, which help us to ensure Israel’s and the Institute’s future success.

  • Biography of Lee I. Levine
    Biography of Lee I. Levine Lee Israel Levine was born on Feb. 1, 1939, in Bangor, Maine, to Rabbi Dr. Harry O. H. Levine and Irene R. Levine (née Ginsburgh). He attended the Akiba Academy in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, and a public high school in Steubenville, Ohio, where his father served as a congregational rabbi. Summers were spent at Camp Ramah. Lee attended Columbia College in New York, majoring in philosophy. At the same time, he studied in the undergraduate program at the Jewish Theological Semi- nary, majoring in Talmud. He graduated from both institutions in 1961, earning a B.A. from Columbia and a B.H.L. in Talmud from JTS. In June 1961, he married Mira Karp of Buffalo, New York. Lee and Mira spent the 1959–60 academic year at Machon Greenberg (Hayyim Greenberg Institute for Teachers from the Diaspora) and the Hebrew University of Jerusalem. From 1961 to 1965, Lee studied in the rabbinical program at the Jewish Theological Seminary with the distinguished rabbis and scholars Saul Lieberman, David Weiss Halivni, Moshe Zucker, and Gerson Cohen. He received his M.H.L. in Talmud in 1963 and rabbinic ordination from JTS in 1965. In 1963, Lee pursued his graduate studies in Jewish and Ancient History at Co- lumbia University with Professors Gerson Cohen and Morton Smith. After receiving his M.A. in 1966, he continued his doctoral studies under the mentorship of Cohen and Smith and was awarded his Ph.D. in 1970. While researching his dissertation on Caesarea under Roman Rule, he spent the 1968–69 academic year at the Institute of Archaeology of the Hebrew University of Jerusalem.
