Jewish Goddess: An Exploration of the Divine Feminine in Jewish Texts

Hosted By: Stephen Wise Free Synagogue

Join guest teacher Rabbi Rachael Pass on Zoom for a three-part class exploring the Divine Feminine throughout Jewish texts.

We’ll examine goddess figures, such as the Canaanite Goddess Asherah; the Kabbalistic goddess-figure of Chochmah, Lady Wisdom; and the most well-known feminine aspects of God in Jewish, Shechinah. Together we’ll learn more about our knowable God and the divinity within ourselves.

Sign-ups are permitted anytime.
