The sixth in our series of Jewish Literacy modules!
Judaism crucially takes place in the context of relationships: with family, lovers, neighbors, community, and with God. In this 3-week series, we’ll explore Jewish spiritual wisdom in these contexts:
What are my responsibilities towards the most important relationships in my life?
What is the meaning of marriage in the Jewish context?
What does it mean to “honor” parents? And what are the obligations of parents to children?
What is so unique about the teacher-student relationship?
Does Judaism prioritize a communal or an individual encounter with God?
…And much more. We’ll some of the most enlightening and provocative texts from Jewish tradition, and discover just how the most important relationships in our lives reveal essential truths about faith and about God. All are welcome: If you’d like to discover more about Judaism’s wisdom for our daily lives, this series is for you.
We invite you to support our Jewish virtual classroom! If you enjoy these classes, we’d welcome your tax-deductible support with grateful appreciation:
