Rabbi Glick’s Spiritual Dimensions of Judaism: Death and the Afterlife
A Thursday evening learning opportunity with Rabbi Glick. It meets one Thursday evening a month, 6:30pm, in person and streaming,
This fall, join Rabbi Glick for a three-session series—October, November, and December—examining death and the afterlife. We will delve into the Biblical beliefs of the underworld, Sheol, and the resurrection of the dead, into the rabbinical innovation of Olam Ha’ba, of the World to Come, and examine the Zohar’s in-depth mystical understanding of what happens from the moment of death, to judgement, to finding a resting place in the higher world, and into reincarnation (gilgul). Even more importantly, we will look into the Zohar’s teaching that how we live directly creates the future that we will reap after we pass. Delve deeply through text and discussion into Judaism’s wisdom on most profound questions of existence and the journey facing us all. All are welcome.
Thursdays at 6:30pm: October 8, November 5, and December 3.
All are welcome.
In person and on Zoom (Zoom ID# 990 415 095). Please register below to be added to the class email list, and receive the class topic and sourcesheets each month.
