“Stories in the Talmud: Art, Law, and Culture” with Rabbi Dr. Daniel Rosenberg

Open Learning and Dinner at 7:30 PM; Shiur at 8:00 PM

Wednesday, March 18 Part II: Law

Wednesday, March 25 Part III: Culture

This three-part class explores a sometimes less-studied part of Talmudic literature. Stories in

the Babylonian Talmud serve multiple functions in helping us to understand the ways that our

sages in Bavel thought. They were skilled storytellers who used narratives to express and define

legal thought, and in doing so, rooted their teaching in real day-to-day life.

Rabbi Dr. Daniel Rosenberg, a longtime member of the ASBI community, was ordained by the

Jewish Theological Seminary in 2001 and recently completed a dissertation at New York

University on the “untold stories” of the Babylonian Talmud. He spends summers as a resident

storyteller at Camp Ramah Darom.

“Dilemmas of Jewish Power” with Rabbi David Wolkenfeld

SHIUR ONLY (no dinner) at 6:30 PM

May 6 Non-Jews in a Jewish State

May 13 Just and Unjust Wars

May 20 Battlefield Ethics and Torture

Hassidic Dimensions in the Post-Modern World

with Rabbi Dr. Julian Ungar

Sundays, March 15, 22 & 29, at 7:00 PM

We will be examining our reading practices by looking at the Sacred Text in a multi-

layered way. By seeing the biases we bring to the text, we begin to see its mirroring

effect and learn to read ourselves in the text. We will discover the mythic strata

embedded deep in the text and in our psyches, and the way the text can help us make

sense of our lives as well as our personal suffering and grief. We will forge a new

approach that resists the pietistic-moralistic approach but also a purely scholastic-

archeological reduction. Finally, by being open to radical readers like the Hassidic

masters before us, we will rely on them for a new trajectory that makes for exciting

study.
