![]() Using PaRDeS in this original way to interpret contemporary films is significant to both Jewish Studies and Film Studies. The PaRDeS method responds to other film analyses in its own interpretative mission to coordinate and integrate multiple levels of meaning. PaRDeS interpretation encourages dialogues about cinema, and the meaning of films.
