Revisionist Histories: July TribeSchool (20s-30s) with Rabbinic Intern Jacob Schatz
Revisionist Histories The book of Deuteronomy begins with Moses recounting stories of the Israelites’ journey through the wilderness – but his retellings do not match the original accounts in Exodus, Leviticus, and Numbers. Why does he change the story? How do the narratives we tell ourselves shape our mission as a people? Which stories do we subscribe to – both ancient and contemporary – and which stories do we need to revisit? Timeline: 7 PM – Dinner 7:45 PM – Learning   About TribeSchool: Once a month, TRIBE is creating our own Beit Midrash (house of study) for us to engage with Jewish text to find how we can live more fulfilling, meaningful lives. Each session will take us on a journey of text exploration and introspective work. Part of the session will be studying in hevruta, or with a study partner, and part of the session will be taught by Rabbinic Intern Jacob Schatz. No previous text study required! Join us for dinner, study, and lively discussion.

Welcome to IKAR’s Adult Learning Line-up for 5786. We’ve got something for everyone. Let’s learn, grow, and connect together.

Conscious Aging 5786 with Rabbi Deborah Silver

Sunday, 6/14, 9:30-11am PT, Zoom, RSVP
This drop-in class is open to anyone who wants to explore the subject of our aging, with the aim of creating community as we turn towards this largely uncharted terrain. At every meeting, we will consider a short piece by Anne Lamott, which will serve as a springboard for practical exercises and conversations that incorporate our tradition’s wisdom and our own. Together we will set new goals for approaching our aging with insight, grace, purpose – and humor. Recommended age 55+.

The Magical Mind of Midrash with Rabbi Morris Panitz

Wednesday, 6/3, 7pm PT, Zoom, RSVP
In the gaps, the ambiguities, the contradictions, and the mysteries of Torah, Midrash is born. Like a flower emerging from the crack in the sidewalk, a new image captures our attention, transforming the entire landscape. In this three-part series, we’ll investigate the project of Midrash– where these new stories come from and how they shape our understanding of both the Torah and its interpreters.
