During Temple Beth Am’s 5785 year of Creating Home Together, we are offering three opportunities for Adult Learning to explore this concept more in-depth. Together, we will engage through the heart – looking at our personal experiences of creating and enriching our Jewish home; mind – studying texts around the concept of home and our role within the community; and soul – connecting more deeply with our Reform Jewish home and movement.
Join Rabbi Dana as they lead us through exploring the Biblical book of Judges, the second post-Torah book in our Hebrew Bible. From Deborah and Yael to Samson and Delilah, the book of Judges has stories we know are part of our canon but we rarely take time to explore. The book begins after Joshua’s leadership sharing about the attempts of Judges to lead the badly behaved Israelites. From the humorous to the gross, to the sad and horrifying, the journey lets us explore moments of difficult and failed leadership in our people’s history, and perhaps can shed light on difficult moments of leadership in our own day. Join us while we laugh, question, and are comforted by the stories our ancestors have held onto in uncertain moments.
Classes will be held on zoom Thursdays, starting December 12th from 6:15-7:30pm (with no class 12/26 & 1/2).
