Rabbi Moon is conducting a four-part teaching session on primeval history, Genesis 1-11. At the first session we looked at the development of the Biblical creation story as a counterpoint to Babylonian power and theology. The second session, to be held Saturday, November 22 at 3:00, will focus on the Adam and Eve narrative and its counterparts in Mesopotamian literature: Atrahasis, the story of Adapa, and the epic of Gilgamesh. In particular we will focus the discussion on the issue of immortality. Everyone is welcome.
Ushpizin - This groundbreaking Israeli film is a rare collaboration between secular and ultra-Orthodox Israelis and one of the first movies filmed in the insular Jerusalem neighborhood of Mea Shearim with ultra-Orthodox actors. Ushpizin (which roughly translates from the Aramaic as "holy guests") is a "gently humorous fable about the power of faith and the possibility of change" (Kenneth Duran, LA Times) in modern-day Israel. Writer and star Shuli Rand won the Best Actor award at the 2004 Israeli Film Academy for his role in this film. Please click here for more information about this film.
It was time for something geshmak. That means tasty, and it’s the perfect word to describe the annual Yiddish Food Festival at the Mt. Sinai Synagogue in Cheyenne. It took place May 18, 2008. Click here to see photos of the event.
