(Against Submission) Alan Brill reviews/interviews Aaron Koller- Unbinding Isaac

With his flair for conceptualization and contextualization, Alan Brill reviews here Aaron Koller, Unbinding Isaac: The Significance of the Akedah for Modern Jewish Thought. Alongside a compelling interpretation of the actual text of the Binding of Isaac and including the long history of Jewish textual interpretation, the book is a full blast critique of the pernicious influence of Kierkegaard on modern Orthodox Jewish thought and Judaism (and bad philosophical takes in contemporary Jewish thought on ethics and autonomy law, authority, submission).
