Are Our Dreams Prophecy, Nonsense, Or Neither?

What Do Dreams Actually Mean: Prophecy? Nonsense? Or Neither?

Do our dreams have real meaning? How are we supposed to understand dreams in a modern contest? Are they prophetic, nonsense, or somewhere in between?

In the Bible we can find several famous dreams with significant meaning, with some even interpreted as prophecies from God. Should we be paying closer attention to what our dreams mean, or is dream prophecy a thing of past?

Here Rabbi Forhman explores these questions, through the lens of both Joseph's dreams and early chapters of Genesis.
