Priests and Poverty

Hosted By: Drisha

The kohen (priest) gets a portion of the wealth consumed by the rest of the Jews, but no land of their own. In this class, we’ll learn texts about priesthood and wealth, trying to understand the social and economic dynamics at play – and what this tells us about how the Torah’s vision of society would work.
