The Book of Numbers with Jeanette Eichenwald
TUESDAYS, Jan. 12 - June 8, 2021 or THURSDAYS, Jan. 14 - June 10, 2021
9:30 to 10:30 a.m. via Zoom, FREE
This semester, the focus will be on the Book of Numbers as it relates to present life. The Book of Numbers - in Hebrew, Bamidbar - is a key text for our time. It is among the most searching, critical books in all of literature about what Nelson Mandela called “the long walk to freedom.” Its message is that there is no shortcut to liberty. It is a sober warning that also remains the master narrative of hope.
