SUMMARY:Bob Dylan's Jewish Roots with Instructor John Clark
DESCRIPTION:Bob Dylan is arguably the single-most important figure in American popular music in the second half of the 20th century\, a point made emphatically when he received the 2016 Nobel Prize for Literature. Though scholars had approached his work as serious poetry for decades\, few had considered the matter of how Dylan’s Jewish heritage and upbringing affected his creative output. With help from all the critical and analytical writing about Dylan’s Jewishness\, we will explore selected works of this enigmatic singer/songwriter through the lens of midrash\, of the prophetic tradition\, Yiddish humor and the past 100 years of Jewish-American songwriting. This presentation will include music and video clips and Dylan’s own words to tell the story. Featured songs: “When the Ship Comes In”\, “Forever Young”\, “Father of Night”\, “I Pity the Poor Immigrant”\, “One More Cup of Coffee”\, “Neighborhood Bully”\, and “Hava Nagila”. \nPlease Note: This program is for Temple Emanuel members only \nRegister→ \nAbout John Clark \nBorn and raised in Ohio\, John taught adult education for twenty years for Emory University and Mercer University in Atlanta\, creating classes on Fifties\, Sixties and American Roots music and a series called Lyrics as Literature. From 2008-2014 he was also a high school history and English teacher. Since moving to Boston in 2014\, he has taught adult and community education for five different programs\, including Brandeis\, Tufts and Cambridge. In 2025 he presented 380 American Music history lectures for senior living communities and Councils on Aging in the Boston area. John boasts a combined record and CD collection of over 8\,000 recordings.

SUMMARY:Yoga Minyan
DESCRIPTION:With Michelle Silberman Hubbard\, Yoga Instructor  \nSundays mornings | 9 – 10 am  \nOur rabbis taught us that the soul is joined intimately to the body.  The two move together and each can be used in the service of God. In this innovative morning minyan we will be using our bodies to pray\, our voices to chant\, and movement to connect with holiness in a Jewish way.  Awaken your senses as you awaken your soul. Expect an uplifting morning service and a great sweat. No previous Yoga or davening experience necessary. Dress for comfort. Bring a yoga mat or towel\, a small towel\, and water. Time to get up and stretch your body! Grab your mat or towel and join in via Zoom. New participants always welcome!  \nZoom link will be provided upon registration. \nRegister Here→ \nSponsored by Sisterhood Temple Emanuel \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n
