    R. Ethan Tucker: Reading the Torah Like a Love Letter

    Do you love midrash? Hate it? In this class, Rabbi Ethan Tucker delves into this unique rabbinic genre to try and understand its essence: Reading the Torah like a love letter, poring over every phrase, while also allowing our deepest values and concerns to come to the fore. Out of this alchemy, midrash is born and the traditional canon is never the same.

    R. Avital Hochstein on Parashat Yitro: An Intimate Meeting

    The Torah describes a moving encounter between Yitro and Moshe, in which Moshe shares his journey and experiences.  A close reading of the details reveals that the Torah offers us a model for meaningful human connection—a way of meeting another person with openness, allowing space both to show and to be seen, to listen deeply and to receive with empathy.

    R. Elazar Symon on Tu Bishvat: Celebrating a Birthday for a Tree

    Tu Bishvat is often called the “birthday of the trees.” There is also a reactionary trend to reject this framework of “birthday” and go back to its original, technical and halakhic purpose, which is found in the Mishnah.

    R. Avital Hochstein on Parashat Beshallah: Where Does Amalek Come From?

    The Torah describes: “Amalek came and fought with Israel at Refidim” (Exodus 17:8). Where does Amalek come from? What is the context out of which this war begins?

    R. Shai Held: Why Don’t We Make Blessings for Interpersonal Mitzvot?

    On its face, it is a real anomaly in Jewish practice: we recite blessings before putting on tefillin or lighting Shabbat candles, but we don't recite any before we visit the sick or comfort a mourner.  In this session, we'll probe a range of sources that try to explain why that is, culminating in a careful examination of one of Maimonides' post-powerful and important essays about the role of character and virtue in Jewish life.

    R. Avital Hochstein on Parashat Bo: Slaves or Warriors: Who Were We When We Left Egypt?

    Woven into the account of the Exodus are two distinct and seemingly contradictory images of the Children of Israel.  On one hand, they are a nation of oppressed slaves, redeemed from a bondage of both body and soul.  On the other, they appear as a vast, armed, and formidable group, driven out in haste by an Egypt terrified of their power.  The opening chapters of the Book of Exodus present these two narratives in parallel, without attempting to reconcile them.

    R. Avital Hochstein on Parashat Va'Era: What is Slavery?

    Pharaoh succeeded.  He brought the Children of Israel into a state of slavery.  The opening of Parashat Va’Era focuses on one particular consequence of this: the loss of the ability to listen.
