Modern Books in Jewish Thought, Rabbi Jonah Rank — SU25

Thursdays 9:00 – 10:30 AM CT 

Although the specific observances of Rosh HaShanah and Yom Kippur have evolved drastically over time, contemporary Jewish religious expression still marks these unique holy days with specialized liturgy. In this course, we will study and even workshop words, melodies, traditions, and rituals that merge to form profound modern reclamations of these sacred moments in the Jewish calendar. Ability to read Hebrew a prerequisite; comprehension of Hebrew a plus.
