Jews are known as the “People of the Book," but which books take up space on our storied “Jewish bookshelf,” and how can we relate to them as Reform Jews today?
Throughout 5786, Rabbinic Intern Rebecca Thau will host eight impactful conversations with experts in the field who will help us explore our sacred texts. In this stirring kickoff program to our yearlong "The Jewish Bookshelf" series, join Rebecca in conversation with Rabbi Robert A. Harris, PhD, about the Hebrew Bible.
Rabbi Robert A. Harris, PhD, is a professor of Bible and Ancient Semitic Languages at The Jewish Theological Seminary of America, teaching courses in biblical literature and commentary, particularly medieval Jewish biblical exegesis. He has published widely on the Bible and the commentators whose interpretations continue to shape our understanding of Scripture.
