Sunday, December 8, 2024 • 7 Kislev 5785
10:00 AM - 12:00 PM
Theme: To Be Apart or A part | Hanukkah: History, Holiday, and Hope
with Rabbi Ron Shulman
Sunday, December 8 | 10:00 a.m.
In person or online (RSVP for Zoom link)
Before enjoying Hanukkah this year, take this opportunity to discover with Rabbi Ron Shulman that there’s much more to our Festival of Lights than a legend about oil. We’ll explore the history and significance of Hanukkah striving to discover insights about what it means to be Jewish in a non-Jewish world, what we confront, and how we live as Jews today.
As Jews, we are, we want to be, we need to be both a part of the larger society in which we live, and set apart from it in the distinctive, particularism of Jewish identity and experience.
This month, we’ll explore this push-pull of being Jewish by exploring our relationship to Israel as Diaspora Jews. We’ll also look into the history and lore of Hanukkah for insights about what it means to be Jewish in a non-Jewish world.
