Rabbi Adin Steinsaltz, renowned scholar of Talmud and other Jewish texts, passed away this week in Jerusalem.  He was a good friend and teacher of Bob Pollack, and friendly with his family and many of his students as well.  Below, in March 2006, Rabbi Steinsaltz addresses a Low Rotunda event on religion and science sponsored by the CSSR, the precursor of the RCSS.   Joining them on the podium is another good friend and major religious figure, the Reverend James Forbes, Jr., then Senior Minister of The Riverside Church.
