Teshuva, Transgression and Transformation – A Journey through Tanach

Hosted By: Torah in Motion

In this 4-part series, we will explore literary models Teshuva by drawing on classic stories from the Tanach. We will use ideas from Hilchot Teshuva to better understand specific Tanach characters and their stories, which led them toward self-reflection, progress, and hopeful resolution. We will carefully examine the primary Tanach texts as well as supportive parshanim to draw insights into these stories and to help us reflect on our own Teshuva process as we approach the Yamim Noraim.

Registration permitted after first session.
