“In our tradition, the emphasis on studying and interpreting texts like the Torah and the Talmud demonstrates a deep-seated value for nuance, multiple perspectives, and ongoing dialogue. It is in this spirit that we co-explore what is arguably modern Judaisms most difficult living text - the endlessly complex situation of Israel/Palestine
What “sort” of Jew is this event for?
You are a Jew who wants community to assess how you are feeling two years since the Oct 7th massacre.
You may still be in shock, grief and anger for Hamas’ brutal attack where 1400 people perished.
You are likely pro-Israel - you do not want to feel like you are betraying Israel or your people.
And…you are distressed by the Netyenhu’s governments deadly and overwrought response to Hamas.
You fear that Netyenhu’s approach will eventually backfire.
You genuinely wish for peace and justice for all people in the region.
