Rabbi’s online class: Inspiring Humanistic Stories
Zoom event: https://zoom.us/j/235778946
Join us for a weekly class as Rabbi Tzemah Yoreh explores inspiring Jewish Humanistic Stories. In this class we will take a closer look at some of the most inspiring stories of humanism from Jewish literature and Jewish life and offer insights for today.
This Week:
Boaz and Ruth
Within biblical literature the story of Boaz and Ruth shines forth as a story of altruism, empathy, and selflessness. Rabbi Tzemah named his eldest son Boaz because Boaz is the only male character in the Hebrew Bible who he feels would be judged well today. In this class we will take a closer look at this story and its ripples throughout history.
