Looking Into It: A Rabbinic Guide to Personal Growth

Hosted By: The Florence Melton School of Adult Jewish Learning

In the classic rabbinic text, Pirkei Avot, the rabbis of late antiquity offer wisdom to guide us to become our best selves. Pirkei Avot suggests how we can improve upon our interpersonal (and intrapersonal) skills and develop an openness to learning and growth, which are at the heart of Jewish living. As we analyze the many diverse rabbinic statements in this ancient text, we will glean intriguing (and humorous) observations about relationships with ourselves, family, and friends. Join Melton for this two-part series with hit Melton teacher Abby Eisenberg as she explores this essential text that is full of insights into human nature.
