Lunch will be served.
Join us for a dynamic Jewish text study and discussion featuring the Pardes Institute of Jewish Studies's Chair of Biblical Studies and author of Subversive Sequels in the Bible, Judy Klitsner.
EXITING THE ECHO CHAMBER:
THE MIDWIVES OF EGYPT AND THE REVIVAL OF SELF
How does a group of outstanding female characters help catalyze the redemption from Egyptian bondage?
In our close reading of the Exodus narrative, we will center on the theme of resistance to the pressures of conventional wisdom, and how strong personal identity helps facilitate connection with the divine.
