Jews and Christians Study Text Together –
February 18- March 18
Five Fridays – 9:30 -11:30am
Judaism, Christianity and Islam all claim a place in God’s Covenant with Abraham and Sarah. All see themselves as inheritors of the core values of that covenant as expressed variously in Judaism, Christianity and Islam, values alive in the three religions and in contemporary culture and geo-politics.
We will read about the beginnings of this world-changing heritage in the story of Abraham, his family and people in the book of Genesis, bringing to bear material from rabbinical commentary, legendary material outside the Bible, the New Testament and the Qur’an.
Do you know the legendary stories about Abraham’s early life? Of his dawning awareness of the One God? The subtle nuances of the Patriarchal narratives? The place of Abraham in Christian belief? Come and share our annual meeting of Jews and Christians to study text, and join in learning and sharing the wisdom of our traditions and each other as well!
Rabbi Avi Friedman & The Rev. Robert Corin Morris are our teachers and guides
Synagogue members welcome as part of Ohr Shalom’s Adult Education
All others – suggested free-will donation $40 series/ $10 per session
