Ephraim I. Zimand, Rabbi Emeritus

Scholar in Residence-2007/5768
Dec. 7-9

Join us for a weekend with Amy-Jill Levine, presenting "Jews, Christians, and the Bible."  Professor Levine, a well-known scholar and lecturer, will be with us this year as our Scholar-In-Residence.  Her lectures are exciting, refreshing and enlightening.  A self-described “Yankee Jewish feminist who teaches in a predominantly Protestant divinity school in the buckle of the Bible Belt,” Levine combines historical-critical rigor, literary-critical sensitivity, and a frequent dash of humor with a commitment to eliminating anti-Jewish, sexist, and homophobic theologies. Sponsored by the Jacob J. Altman Memorial Adult Education Fund

We will welcome Prof. Levine on Friday, Dec 7, at a Shabbat dinner. The cost is $20 per adult and $12 per child.  If desired, bring your own kosher wine.  Reservations by December 3, 2007, please.  See below for registration information.
