Facing Mortality with Jewish Wisdom: Back to the Sources

Hosted By: Shomer Collective

How do traditional Jewish texts encourage us to confront our mortality and add meaning to our lives today? And what’s milk got to do with it?

In this text-based learning session, explore classic Jewish stories about death and dying, from the death of Sarah our matriarch in the Torah, through the Talmud, in which the rabbis imagine what it might feel like to die, to modern thinkers’ attempts to make sense of the finality of bodily life.
