Nathan Lopes Cardozo Quotes

[I]t Is No Doubt True That Our Image Of What A Messiah Might Look Like May Keep Us From Recognizing The Real Thing When It Stands Before Us. Could It Be That We Have Embellished The Long-awaited Event With So Many Aggadic Flourishes That We Can No Longer Recognize The Reality When It Happens? Could Our Overly Literal Reading Of Our Sages' Poetic Descriptions Have Led Us To Overlook Completely The Miracle As It Happened?
One Of The Dangers Of Taking The Statements And Speculations Of Our Sages As Literal Truth - When They Were Not Meant As Such - Is The Distortion Of Our Expectations.
