Recently, I created several videos where I offer some audio readings of segments from Jewish compositions that people might have never read, that I have translated. If you are not familiar, The Apocalypse of Abraham (התגלות אברהם, hitgalut Avraham) is an ancient Jewish apocalyptic text that scholars estimate was composed sometime between 70 CE and 150 CE. Like many midrash stories about Abraham, it extols faith in one powerful and very real personal God. As one might expect, it's a story of faith.
