Judaism’s Big Ideas
A four-part exploration of some of the most important, innovative  and inspirational ideas of our tradition.

Wednesday 13 October
Monotheism and Peoplehood
Join Rabbi Natasha for the beginning of our journey. We will delve into the polytheistic world into which Judaism was born and explore the strange concept of One God, how it affects
peoplehood and tribalism, and how the revolution/revelation of monotheism continues to shape us.

Ethics & Justice with Rabbi Jeremy, 20 October
Ethics & Justice with Rabbi JeremyWhat does it mean to be good?What is the relationship between being good and being Jewish, or religious?How should a Jewish conception of God impact on our ability to be good?

Worship & Embodiment with Rabbi Natasha, 27 October
Our people’s tradition of worship began with altars build on journeys, solidified with sacrificial services in a static Temple, and evolved into a set of prayers. How were our decisions about worship innovative and important to the world? How has the shift from action to words affected us? And what exactly are we looking forward to in the Third Temple era?

Time with Rabbi Jeremy, 3 November
Time – Jews have a particular relationship with time. We travel through days, weeks and years in cycles that demarcate and locate our lives. And across millenia in ways that are, sometime, brutal, but also miraculous. Come and explore more with Rabbi Jeremy.
