Purim and Persia
Hosted By: London School of Jewish Studies (LSJS)
The London School of Jewish Studies will explore the Book of Esther through the lens of Persian court culture and politics. A professor specializing in ancient Persia and a rabbi will discuss how academic research reinforces traditional Jewish interpretations of the Megillah. Their conversation will highlight new insights into the historical and political context of the Purim story.
