Implications of the Akeida: Part 2- Human Knowledge of the Good

In the second part of this series, we challenge and reject the notion that Abraham forfeits the ethical in order to obey God, or that it is impossible for man to come to know the ethical or moral truth of his own accord. On the contrary, we argue that there is an independent idea of “good" that man can indeed come to know, and that God also does not command the impossible or the unethical.
