His major topic of interest is metaphysics including, among others, why the time-arrow is one-directional, why the universe is three-dimensional, what causes gravity and what causes magnetism, solution to the so called “dark energy” and more. He came to the stories of Shaphan to Josiah with the intention of understanding why the Hebrew Bible is full of exaggerations and miracles.
