Join Rabbi Levy for the final installment of his series of adult education classes focusing on the five megillot (scrolls) Jews read over the course of the holiday calendar. This series will conclude with a class focusing on the Song of Songs (Shir HaShirim), the Bible's preeminent book of love poetry, which is traditionally read during the days of Passover. We'll explore the vivid imagery and sensual language of the Song of Songs, and the ways that our ancient ancestors grappled with this intimate and very human element of our sacred tradition.
