Facilitated by Rabbi Rachel Brown
This class will look at the political issues going on in Israel, including the relationship between Israelis and Palestinians and the relationship of Haredim with the rest of the Israeli population. We will use various texts – books, newspaper articles and traditional Jewish sources – to help facilitate our journey through these complex and often emotionally wrought issues. Our planned meeting days are the following Sundays from 10:15am to 11:30am (though the time may be changed to accommodate other happenings at the shul):
