Collective Punishment in Jewish Thought: Pouring Out Our Wine Cups.

Reflecting on Israel’s military response to Hamas’s atrocities on October 7 and the subsequent deaths of thousands of Gazans, we are challenged to ask the question: does Judaism support the idea of collective punishment? Gather some materials for your Passover Seder by joining Rabbi Aaron Starr for this Wisdom and Coffee conversation.

Wisdom and Coffee provides an opportunity for learning and conversation on a Shabbat morning that is entirely separate from our prayer service. Participants may choose to dress casually and come just for the Wisdom and Coffee, or they may stay for the Shabbat service as well.

Coffee and a special breakfast will be served. 

Wisdom and Coffee is generously sponsored by Shelley and Joel Tauber.
