Ruach HaYam teaching presented by Penina Weinberg
December 5, 2021

This evening is the 8th candle of Chanukah. If you celebrate, bring your menorah!! We’ll dip into texts appropriate to the season: a few excerpts from Judith, midrash about Chanukah, interesting texts and poetry. Judith is a truly multifaith heroine so we have stories for everyone. Feel free to contribute a memory from our intensive study of Judith in the Time Before and/or a favorite song. The study will be eclectic, relaxed, hopefully a tad festive

Banner is a Hanukiah depicting Judith, Italy, 19th century(?) The Jewish Museum, NY.

At 7 pm ET, meeting will be open for logging in, schmoozing and solving any technical issues. Study begins at 7:15 ET. We will go until 8:45 pm.
