Tuesday Night Talmud
Sanhedrin:  Justice in This World and The Next 

Led by Rabbi Lindemann and Rabbi Katz

Is the section of Sanhedrin a logical continuation of the themes in the tractate?  Or does this material constitute something totally different - an addendum that stands on its own? Clearly, it raises some fascinating topics:  resurrection, messianic redemption, and the world to come.  How were these ideas understood at the time of the Talmud?  How should we understand them today?  The conclusion of the Sanhedrin also raises questions about the intersection of politics and religion, as well as the nexus of communal and individual responsibility.  This is a deep dive into philosophy and theology.

Aging Gracefully with Gilah Lewis Sietz

‘Gray hair is a crown of Glory; It is attained by the way of righteousness’ Proverbs 16:31

Such is the way we age. First the hair, then the eyesight, teeth, then what??? Aging is inevitable; along with taxes. HOW we age is a gift we can give to our children, family, friends and those around us. What kind of legacy can we leave as we gray and squint? Judaism gives us so many beautiful, practical and intelligent ways to age with grace. Join Gilah Lewis Sietz as we discover this amazing world of aging together as we learn a little, cry a little and laugh a lot!!
