Emeritus Group

Wednesday, 8/23 | 10:00AM

Emeritus session on Wednesday, August 23rd at 10 AM - accessible both onsite at Bet Shalom and Zoom. 

The theme will be "Being Jonah As We Enter the Days of Awe". Rabbi Cohen and Rabbi Bob will provide insights into the Book of Jonah, a text that is read during the High Holidays.  

Jonah was on "a mission from God" to open the gates of repentance to the Ninevites, the ancient enemy of our people. For many reasons Jonah tried to avoid doing what he knew was his job. What do we do to avoid the High Holiday theme of sin and guilt- and why?
