Fall Semester Lifelong Learning Courses
“All who thirst, come to the water.” (Isaiah 55:1)
הוי כל צמא לכו למים (ישעיהו נה:א)
Scholars often compare the Torah to a well, and its words to water. Drawn from a deep and meaningful place, this water has the ability to sate all who seek it. Applied wisdom and devoted study are instrumental in our spiritual quest at Romemu. The Well is a place to meet deeper dimensions of our faith, our tradition, our community, and our lives. Classes featuring a variety of subjects are taught by Romemu clergy, guest scholars, and community members and are offered throughout the year.
We invite all who are thirsty for knowledge and wisdom to come to The Well to drink.
Beit Midrash: The Worlds They Created
Rabbi Dianne Cohler-Esses
In times of deep crisis, there are those who find the courage to build a new world—one that radically departs from the dominant ethos.
In this Fall/Winter session of Beit Midrash, we will turn to our ancestors: the Midwives, Miriam and Batya the daughter of Pharaoh, Moses, Hannah, King David, Esther, Ruth—and even to the character of God in Torah. Through their stories we will ask: What did it take to move forward in the midst of personal or collective upheaval? What fueled their courage and resolve?
As we reflect on our own era—marked by powerful and destructive forces—we will together explore what these transformative figures can teach us, and what sources we might draw upon at this moment to act in ways that are life-giving.
