Thankful The Role of Gratitude in the Jewish Bible – and in our Lives
Gratitude is a very Jewish trait. Over the course of 4 weeks, we will explore several Biblical stories through the lens of gratitude – and its ugly opposite, ingratitude. In doing so we will uncover just how central a role gratitude plays in our history, and in our Judaism. In addition to Tanakh, we will also look at relevant midrashim, mitzvot, minhagim, and even the Siddur as we reflect upon the sundry ways that Judaism fosters an attitude of gratitude.
Two Remaining Wednesdays: March 8th and 15th 7pm via ZOOM
Volunteer to either facilitate or attend small Shabbat meals of randomly assigned attendees. Don't worry about the food or the fanciness. Focus on the friendship! Challah, wine and good company is all that is required.
