Shemot, Exodus: The Emerging Jewish Nation February 12, 2013

This course with Rabbi James Greene follows the development of the emerging Jewish nation from the awe-inspiring encounter at Mount Sinai through the building of the tabernacle in the wilderness. The high points of divine revelation in “Ten Commandments,“ “Encountering God,” and “Face to Face with God” are sharply contrasted with the low points of the “Golden Calf: Revolt or Reversion.” The text addresses some of the specific laws and regulations that were to become part of Jewish living as well as their meaning, purpose, and relevance to our lives today. $150 for JCC members, $180 for non-members.
