Kabbalistic Insights into Marital Intimacy
Sunday 7:45 PM–9:00 PM Monarch Lobby Classroom
Identity & Responsibility, Text & Thought
The goal of sex in marriage is connected to the deepest purpose of human existence. This session will use classical sources to explore the purpose of the universe, creation of Adam and Isha, and the nature of humankind. Together we will gain a deeper understanding into the philosophy underpinning the sexual experience, insight into why it is a fundamental human craving, and how to use this desire to bring shalom to the world.
To Sin is Holy
The Anti-Torah of Jacob Frank
Jay Michaelson, Nehirim: GLBT Jewish Culture and Spirituality
Sunday 7:45 PM–9:00 PM Breckenridge 5106
The antinomian heretic Jacob Frank (1726-1791) was a fascinating and startling Jewish (and Christian, and, briefly, Muslim) thinker and/or cult leader who believed that the total transgression of all basic norms was necessary to actualize the messanic redemption. Think Sabbetai Sevi but with more sex and heresy. In this class we'll apply a very traditional format -- hevruta, texts, etc. -- to very radical texts, including some of Frank's remarkable legends and tales.
