Skull Fossil Offers New Clues On Human Journey From Africa 1/29/15
As a former biologist and current rabbi, I had been teaching my bar and bat mitzvah students the possibility of interbreeding among humans and Neanderthals for a number of years, based on Genesis: 6: 1-4, when the research confirming the percentage of Neanderthal DNA in human populations became public a few years ago. This latest find, in addition to prior articles, shows that the early sections of Genesis contain fascinating clues about scientific truths, if we are curious and know how to interpret them. My students were amazed that what I had been teaching them as a possibility was actually true.
