Rabbi YY Jacobson on Recognition of G-d: Focus on Naaman
In this amazing lecture, Rabbi YY Jacobson delves into four levels of recognizing G-d’s supremacy and unity. These were introduced by four key people in the Hebrew Bible:
- Yisro (Jethro): Exodus 18:11
- Rachav (Rahab): Joshua 2:11
- Naaman: II Kings 5:15
- Moshe (Moses): 4:39
A main part of this lecture focuses on Naaman, a great general of Aram in the time of Elisha. When his skin affliction of tzara’as (Lev. 13) was cured miraculously, he rejected idolatry and became a righteous Gentile (Noahide).
