I received a good amount of mostly encouraging feedback on my lengthy “Oversize Posting” of last week, and several suggestions that I reformulate the essay for a non-believing reader.

I have indeed done that, at least in part, and shared the first of a three-part series of essays on the topic of the veracity of the Jewish mesora with the general Jewish media that Am Echad Resources services.

In coming weeks, I hope to share with those outlets the second and third installments of the rewritten essay.

Rather than burden Cross-Currents with what is, at least in content, essentially a re-run of a previous posting, I will suffice to simply let readers know that should they wish to receive a copy of the reformulated three-part essay, they need only send me an e-mail requesting the same, to shafran@amechad.com
