REGISTRATION
From Slavery to Sinai (Exodus / Shemot Part I) |
---|
This course brings us the Egyptian narrative of our people from “Pharoah’s Paranoia” and “Moshe’s CV” to the dramatic story of our rescue, and survival in the wilderness during “Into the Sea” and “Manna from Heaven.” Leadership, bravery, faith, and doubt define some of the critical moments in these texts and offer us a rich backdrop for challenging our own assumptions. Day: Thursdays, January 14 - March 18, 2021 Time: 10:00 - 11:30 a.m. Eastern via Zoom Faculty: Rabbi Steven Garten |
