Adult Ed

Please join us on Saturday afternoon for a lively in-person discussion (fueled by refreshments) with Rabbi Gabi.  We will be discussing the work of Rabbi Abraham Joshua Heschel, once described as, “Mark Twain with a yarmulka,” and one of the leading Jewish theologians and Jewish philosophers of the 20th century. Heschel believed that the teachings of the Hebrew prophets were a clarion call for social action in the United States. His theological works argued that religious experience is a fundamentally human impulse, not just a Jewish one, and that no religious community could claim a monopoly on religious truth.   Click here to view a short video excerpted from an interview with Rabbi Heschel filmed shortly before his death in 1972.
