Tuesday Night Symposium: Diaspora & Exile in the Talmud and Related Rabbinic Literature

Tuesday, December 17, 2024    
7:00 pm - 8:30 pm

The Miriam & Moses Center for Pluralistic Adult Jewish Learning presents:

Diaspora & Exile in the Talmud and Related Rabbinic Literature with Dr. David Kraemer, Joseph J. and Dora Abbell Librarian, and  Professor of Talmud and Rabbinics, Jewish Theological Seminary

The centrality of the Land of Israel in biblical and subsequent Jewish teachings is not the only view in our tradition. Attendees will learn about the ways the Talmud and other rabbinic literature push back against that centrality, claiming “exile” as a vibrant center of Jewish life, as well.
