Avinu Malkeinu – Traditional Understandings of God for the High Holy Days

September 1, 2022, 6:30 pm - 7:30 pm

Spielberg Chapel and on Zoom
Join Rabbi Reinhart for a dive into Jewish theology.  We’ll examine some traditional understandings of God as portrayed in the liturgy of the High Holy Days and as depicted in the Torah.  Embrace the name Yisrael, “One who struggles with God,” as we wrestle with the challenges posed by many of these concepts, e.g. theodicy (i.e. why do bad things happen to good people?), anthropomorphism, and divine reward and punishment.
