The Deep Dive: Shema
Welcome to the Light Lab! Join us to explore the three units of the shema in depth- their themes, connections, context, poetics, translations, meaning... what more can be found when we slow down? What shines through when we hold these gems of our tradition up to the light? 
Come to any or all of the following sessions! 

Wednesday Sessions with Rabbi Reuven Kimelman- Will be streamed and recorded. 
January 25th, February 1st, February 8th 3-4 pm eastern time

Thursday Sessions with Eliana Light-Will not be streamed or recorded.
January 26th, February 2nd, February 9th 7-8:30 pm eastern time 

Wednesday sessions, with renowned liturgist Rabbi Reuven Kimelman, will focus on the themes of the Biblical texts and the connections between:

1. How does literary theory help us understand the first unit of the Shema (Deuteronomy 6:4-9) as an integrated literary unit while maximizing its meaning?
2. How does the second unit of the Shema (Deuteronomy 11:13-24)
revamp the first to sustain loyalty to g?d despite the enticements of idolatry?
3. How is unit three of the Shema (Numbers 15:37-41) linked to the first two?

Thursday sessions with Light Lab founder Eliana Light will seek to move the liturgy through us, alchemizing it into prayer through partnered study, chant, song, meditation, and personal reflection. 

The class is open to all! Donations are optional, suggested 5-10 dollars per class. 
Links to get the zoom will pop up once you register. 
More information will be sent to you by email before the sessions begin. 
Looking forward to diving together!
