The Jewish religion has a core story: a narrative of our people’s early history. What, in fact, is the history behind the narrative? We can better understand our history — as well as our “story”— by exploring the international framework in which our people emerged. This course is focused on that exploration.
Session 1: The Collapse of Ancient Superpowers
Session 2: The People “Israel” Emerges
Session 3: From Bronze to Iron
Session 4: From Gods to God
This 4-week course will be taught by Rabbi Michael Panitz. In-person and online learning options available.
