SUMMARY:Sisterhood Tuesday Morning Study Group
DESCRIPTION:With Rabbi Wes Gardenswartz\n\nThe theme of Tuesday Sisterhood Torah study is the power of “And.” How two things that are in direct conflict with one another can both be true. That is true in life. That is true in Torah study. Solomon was the wisest King and the author of Song of Songs\, Proverbs and Ecclesiastes. And Solomon violated all the Torah’s rules about a Jewish king. The Torah says not too many horses\, Solomon had too many horses. Not too much silver and gold\, Solomon had too much silver and gold. Not too many foreign wives as they will turn the King’s heart towards the worship of false Gods. Solomon has too many wives and they turned him into an idolater. \nWe will study the Torah\, and we will think about our lives\, through the evocative lens of “And”. \n\nJoin in on Zoom.

DESCRIPTION:With Rabbi Wes Gardenswartz\n\nThe theme of Tuesday Sisterhood Torah study is the power of “And.” How two things that are in direct conflict with one another can both be true. That is true in life. That is true in Torah study. Solomon was the wisest King and the author of Song of Songs\, Proverbs and Ecclesiastes. And Solomon violated all the Torah’s rules about a Jewish king. The Torah says not too many horses\, Solomon had too many horses. Not too much silver and gold\, Solomon had too much silver and gold. Not too many foreign wives as they will turn the King’s heart towards the worship of false Gods. Solomon has too many wives and they turned him into an idolater. \nWe will study the Torah\, and we will think about our lives\, through the evocative lens of “And”. \n\nJoin in on Zoom.

SUMMARY:Pathways to Hope: A Conversation with Young Israeli Changemakers
DESCRIPTION:Join Hartman’s Ronit Heyd\, Vice President and Director of the Center for Israeli & Jewish Identity\, in conversation with participants from the Shalom Hartman Institute’s Hazon program visiting from Israel Israel — Noi Schwartz\, Ayala Dahlan and Yonathan Machlis. \nSince October 7\, it has been hard to imagine a secure and peaceful future for Israel. Conversations across the Jewish world have often been marked by despair: ongoing war\, political deadlock\, internal divisions\, and a growing sense that the vision of a democratic\, united Israel feels more distant than ever. \nYet there is another story—one grounded in hope. Hope is more than a feeling; it is the engine of social change and the foundation of a better future. As Israel’s anthem\, Hatikvah\, reminds us\, hope is central to Jewish identity and to those shaping Israel’s tomorrow: young changemakers building community\, students defending democratic values\, spiritual leaders offering guidance\, and bold thinkers imagining new paths for shared society. They remind us that even in difficult times\, aspiring and working towards a better vision for tomorrow can bring about real change. \nTemple Emanuel and the Shalom Hartman Institute invite you to join us at Pathways to Hope (Netivim Shel Tikva) where you’ll hear from the leaders who are meeting today’s realities with vision and courage. Together\, with purpose and optimism\, we can help shape a better future for Israel. Register here. \nHazon (Hebrew for vision) is a cutting-edge leadership training initiative for Israeli university students eager to become agents of change. Grounded in a bold vision for a Jewish and democratic Israel\, Hazon equips participants with the tools and inspiration to shape the future of Israeli society. Learn more about Hazon here. \nWatch a Recording Here→\nAbout the Shalom Hartman Institute’s Hazon Program Participants\nNoi Schwartz is the Student Communities Manager at Tene Yerushalmi and a psychodrama student at Seminar Hakibbutzim\, where she interns with people experiencing homelessness.
