Response to the following question:
Q.1: Judaism puts a strong emphasis on the power of naming, both by giving Adam the power to name the elements of creation and by restricting the power of humans to name God. Do you think words, and specifically names, have power? How does knowing your name, or gaining other information about you (like your social security number and date of birth), give others power over you? Why do you think Jews might want to limit the power of humans to name God?
