Expect the Unexpected: Stories From the Talmud

Hosted By: The National Library of Israel (NLI)

The texts found in rabbinic literary work, and specifically the Talmud and Midrashim, contain an unmistakable spirit of freedom, liberty and imagination. In this lecture, we will seek to understand some of the characteristics of rabbinic literary work, not from an educational or religious point of view, but rather out of a desire to know and celebrate some of its more surprising and unpredictable aspects.

The event listed here is hosted by a third party. My Jewish Learning/70 Faces Media is not responsible for its content or for errors in the listing.
