Foundations for a Thoughtful Judaism
2022-05-11 19:00 - 20:30, 2022-04-27 19:00 - 20:30
Taught by Rabbi Jacob Herber
Every other Wednesday ● 7:00 PM – 8:30 PM ● via Zoom
Join Rabbi Herber for Foundations for a Thoughtful Judaism, The Shalom Hartman Institute’s latest curricular project, which offers a sophisticated yet accessible introduction to philosophical ideas in Jewish peoplehood, practice, faith, and ethics. Within these four rubrics we will explore the following questions:
Peoplehood
Explores questions related to the collective experience of Jewish life: What does it mean to be part of the Jewish community? To what extent can communities hold diverse and shared values at the same time? What does Jewish Peoplehood mean today, when the centers of Jewish life, North America and Israel, are so different and independent from one another?
Faith
Explores questions related to what a relationship in God and a life of faith entails: Where does faith come from? What are the models in Jewish tradition for a complex relationship with God which includes reverence and joy, but also anger and argument? Where does doubt fit into a life of faith? Where do Jews who do not believe fit in?
Practice
Explores questions that are fundamental to Jewish practice: What is the system of mitzvot trying to accomplish? Why the need for ritual action beyond belief? How have Jewish thinkers conceived of the meaning of mitzvot in an age of radical human autonomy?
Ethics
Explores questions related to ethical obligation and decision-making: How has Jewish tradition conceived of what we owe other people? How might we approach ethical dilemmas which test our loyalties to values and to people?

This is casual and social so we won’t be racing and won’t drop riders. Jeff and/or Steve plan to be around for each ride. If either or neither of us can join any given month, we will likely ask a volunteer(s) to lead and/or ride sweep to ensure that we don’t leave anybody behind.
If the weather forecast & evidence are much more than light drizzle, we will not hold the ride. An email will go out at least two hours prior to the start time if a ride is cancelled due to weather.
Finally, this is a social group ride. Helmets are mandatory and other than that, you are accepting responsibility and risk for your own safety and bicycling capabilities by joining the ride. HNT, Jeff and Steve do not accept liability for any incidents or injuries that may occur while you are out riding your own bike with our group.
