Foundations of a Thoughtful Judaism: Faith

Taught by Rabbi Holzman
Tuesdays, 7:00-8:30pm, on Zoom only
January 28, February 25, March 18, April 22, May 20

In our next section of the four-part Foundations curriculum from the Shalom Hartman Institute of North America, we explore big ideas about faith. Where does faith come from? What are the models in Jewish tradition for a complex relationship with God which includes reverence and joy, but also anger and argument? Where does doubt fit into a life of faith? Where do Jews who do not believe fit in? Join us as we delve into these questions and more.

History of Zionism

Taught by Rabbi Michael Holzman
Tuesdays, December 3, January 7, February 4, March 4, April 8, May 6
7:00-8:30pm, in person and on Zoom

The idea of Jewish autonomy and self-determination in the land of Israel pervades and structures Jewish thought for most of our history as a people.  In the modern era this concept gets turbo-charged, leads to the formation of the State of Israel, and continues to evolve through our present day. This course will trace the major ideas of Zionism and explore how over time, the emphasis of Zionism has shifted between different aspects of this line of thought. No prior knowledge required.
