Judaism is About Love Book Study with Rabbi Rona Shapiro
Monday, April 8, 2024 • 29 Adar II 5784
7:30 PM - 9:00 PMMonday Nights April 8, 15; May 6, 13, 20; June 3, 10 In his new book, “Judaism is About Love,” Rabbi Shai Held — one of the most important Jewish thinkers in America today — recovers the heart of the Jewish tradition, offering the radical and moving argument that love belongs as much to Judaism as it does to Christianity. He shows that love is foundational and constitutive of true Jewish faith, animating the singular Jewish perspective on injustice and protest, grace, family life, responsibilities to our neighbors and even our enemies, and chosenness. We will read selected passages from Held’s new and lengthy book and discuss them. Everyone is welcome. No experience necessary. Free for members; non-members $100.
