"Stories in the Talmud: Art, Law, and Culture"
with Rabbi Dr. Daniel Rosenberg

 

This three-part class will explore a sometimes less-studied part of Talmudic literature. Stories in the Babylonian Talmud serve multiple functions in helping us to understand the ways that our sages in Bavel thought. They were skilled storytellers who used narratives to express and define legal thought, and in doing so, rooted their teaching in real day-to-day life.

March 18
"Part II: Law"

March 25
"Part III: Culture"

Rabbi Dr. Daniel Rosenberg, a longtime member of the ASBI community, was ordained by the Jewish Theological Seminary in 2001 and recently completed a dissertation at New York University on the “untold stories” of the Babylonian Talmud. He spends summers as a resident storyteller at Camp Ramah Darom.
