The Cow that Laid an Egg: The Seder and Conflict Resolution
Sunday, March 21, 1:00-2:00 p.m. ET
Learn with JTS at the Limmud eFestival this year!
The history of how we understand Passover is replete with conflicting views: within the Torah itself, in the Mishnah, and between early Rabbinic Judaism and early Christianity. The Seder emerges as a locus of resolutions to this series of opposing perspectives, and invites us to ask how we can emulate its example in our own divided times.
Presented by Rabbi Robert Harris, Professor of Bible and Ancient Semitic Languages, JTS.
