We’re delighted to welcome back RABBI DALIA MARX to A Tree with Roots, as she leads us in text study and spiritual preparation for PURIM.
Rabbi Dalia Marx is one of the foremost scholars and exciting teachers of liberal Judaism working in Israel today: Rabbi David Ellenson ז״ל called her “arguably the foremost student of Jewish liturgy of her generation” and “a unique genius.” She is a 10th generation Jerusalemite, earned her doctorate at Hebrew University, and rabbinic ordination at Hebrew Union College-Jewish Institute of Religion. She was the lead editor of Tfillat HaAdam (2020), the Siddur of the Israeli Reform movement, as well as a wide array of academic and popular writings on Jewish liturgy, the Babylonian Talmud, and Israeli literature.
Her recent book, From Time to Time: Journeys in the Jewish Calendar, is unlike any previous exploration of the Jewish year. It is a fascinating spiritual journey through the calendar, artfully blending traditional and contemporary perspectives on each Hebrew month and its holidays—with a fantastic collection of classic and contemporary Israeli poems and prayers.
All are welcome to join us for this unique opportunity to study with one of our favorite teachers of Jewish life and liturgy.
There is no charge for this special event. If you’d like to support our work, you can do so here, with our gratitude!
