Dennis Prager Alone

Luke Ford writes:

Dennis Prager says in his 15th lecture on Deuteronomy (2003) that he teaches to no particular group.

“Most people who take positions have a specific group they appeal to. My appeal is to people individually than groupwise. Most people teaching Torah would teach only to Jews… It doesn’t work that way in my life. The reason is that I don’t follow any line. I teach it in a way that is universally true…without following any doctrinal positions.”

“I don’t think there is another Torah class with as mixed an audience as you are.”
