(38) Emunah and Physics: A Jewish Resolve …with Dr. Berel (Zachary) Epstein

Dr. Berel Leib (Zachary) Epstein lives in Baltimore with his wife and children. He learns at Yeshivas Ner Yisroel.

He also is a theoretical physicist and a Senior Staff Scientist at the Johns Hopkins University Applied Physics Laboratory, where he engages in advanced research aimed at supporting the United States' technological edge in defense applications.

He came to my attention when I received an email from Mosaica Press about his new book “Emunah and Physics: A Jewish Resolve.”

Mosaica Press writes: “The age of the earth. Archaeological evidence. The nature of miracles. These questions have often been either sidestepped or answered in ways that satisfy neither the scientific mind nor the believing soul. ‘Emunah and Physics’ does something rare: it takes these questions seriously, without flinching—and without losing the integrity of either science or Torah.

“Dr. Epstein explores the blurred and often misunderstood boundaries between what we know, what we believe, and what we are still discovering. This book is not about proving Torah with science, nor is it about bending Torah to fit scientific models. It’s about thinking clearly, with humility and depth, and seeing how the two worlds can not only coexist but deeply illuminate each other.”
