THE BURNING BUSH: DIVINE MYSTERY AND HUMAN PSYCHE
Reading the Book of Exodus Part Two with Shoshana Jedwab — Tuesdays 8-9 pm ET / 5-6 pm PT, April 22, 29, May 6, 13, 27
Shoshana Jedwab has been teaching the Book of Exodus in its original language for thirty consecutive years. In this five-session course, we will closely read the initiation and resistance tale of the Burning Bush in Chapters 3 and 4 of the Book of Exodus along with classical, modern and ecofeminist commentaries. We will enter the world “beyond the wilderness” with Moses and his flock and encounter flora flourishing in fire. At the mountain of mystery, where the divine mystery and human psyche meet and miss, we will take away ancestral wisdom and wonders for our own healing. No knowledge of Hebrew or Biblical Studies needed.
The class will be taught via Zoom and can also be accessed via phone. All sessions will be recorded; you can take the class even if the time block does not work for you. For financial assistance or scholarship opportunities, please reach out to liviah@beitkohenet.org.
Cost: $200 + $25 non-refundable registration fee
