With Rabbi Or Rose
RSVPs Welcome. Free & open to the public. Donations accepted online or at event.
Join us as we explore various medieval and early modern Jewish mystical teachings on the festival of Passover.
*How do the kabbalists understand the relationship between spiritual and physical liberation?
*What do they believe is the relationship between the human being and the Divine in these processes?
*How are classical figures like Moses and Pharaoh treated by the mystics?
This session is intended as both an introduction to Jewish mystical thought and as an opportunity for reflection on the values of freedom, personal and communal responsibility, and religious pluralism.
