Join us for a thought-provoking online session with Prof. Rabbi Reuven Kimelman, as we explore what it truly means to say "God loves you," the religious implications of such a claim, and how Judaism and Christianity differ in their understandings of divine love. Prof. Kimelman, Professor of Classical Judaica at Brandeis University and former rabbi of Beth Abraham Sephardic Congregation of New England, brings deep expertise in Jewish liturgy, religious thought, and classical texts. Author of The Mystical Meaning of “Lekhah Dodi” and Kabbalat Shabbat and the forthcoming The Rhetoric of the Jewish Liturgy, he will guide us through an hour of learning and reflection on the meaning, history, and enduring power behind these profound religious ideas.
