And I think that's a lesson for all of us to aim for that rather than a number, rather than worrying about what their testosterone is.

And you yourself actually looked at new data from the Hebrew University Hadassah Brown School of Public Health and Community Medicine, the Israeli group.

And that study obviously suggested, I think that's one of the most popular studies in this space, where it suggested that men's average testosterone levels halved in the last 50 years.

And I think A lot of companies have probably profited off that single headline snapshot.

It's Barron's doctorate.

The famous author, I think he lives in Beit Shemesh, he's a professor at Hebrew U, published quite a few volumes.

It's a 900-plus page doctorate on his life, on his lambdas.

He has there the machoikis between the Chazonish and Mori Rebbe, in Zrayim, in the pshat, It's a brilliant doctorate.

Here, the state had to step in.

They had to get a woman who was knowledgeable to take over the estate, someone who knew the value, someone who knew Yiddish.

And finally, after his wife died, they made a very interesting decision that the rights to the estate would be shared by YIVO and the Hebrew University.

and the agreement read that the actual documents would go to YIVO in New York in Manhattan and YIVO working with the Hebrew University would transcribe everything and put it online and make it available to the public.

Right.

So before I start, I just want to mention that the paper in Nature Immunology about the Salmonella infection was done together in collaboration, tight collaboration with Matan Ofri from the Hebrew University.

And this paper that you are now mentioning in Immunity about the modified ECM was really a tight collaboration with a member of my department, which is Immunology and Regenerative Biology, Iritsagi, that is really an expert in ECM.

Both labs really decided that we know that stem cells are residing inside ECM.

Today on the Digging Podcast, I'm joined by Dr. Simeon Chevelle, Associate Professor of Hebrew Bible at the University of Chicago Divinity School.

He earned his Ph.D. in Biblical Studies at the Hebrew University and is the author of Oracular Law and Priestly Historiography in the Torah.

The book is the definitive study of the four Torah stories where Moses brings an unanswered case before Yahweh, which makes him the scholar to explain why the Bible delivers its laws through stories.

Now, it's time

And so they preserved manuscripts.

And these manuscripts are preserved to this day libraries throughout the world, places like Oxford and Cambridge and Hebrew University, among others.

And many of them are midrashim, what we call medieval

midrashim, midrashim that were not available in the Talmudic times,

That's how they made a living.

So today, at the Hebrew University, for example, we have lists of these scribes who wrote in the medieval period, and we know the different manuscripts who can recognize their handwriting.

There is no sage by the name of Isaac Alevi, who is known from the year 1212 in Spain, and we have no other manuscript from any scribe named Rabbi Isaac Ben-Joseph of Barcelona, despite the claims of Friedlander.

Friedlander said that he had found several letters in this early print edition of Yerushalmi by He's Rabbi Benvenisti, and Freelander actually printed the letter.

But when I came in Aliyah, the departments were still very big.

And I once got a call from a professor, a lady at Hebrew U who was renowned for her research in Kabbalah.

and she asked me whether the Rav what was his attitude towards Kabbalah and I told her that he quoted Zohar he quoted Kabbalistic sources I think on a theological level he integrated it with his non-halachic lectures however on a practical level I don't think the Kabbalah played a role, halacha l'maysa.

But this brings up a tremendous question.
