Eighty years after the Shoah, and still we are struggling to find ways to talk about the horror, the tragedy and the destruction visited upon our people and the world.

During the season of Holocaust Remembrance, Rabbi Jack Luxemburg offers the study and discussion of two modern voices, both women, who employ the ancient mode of Midrash, to illustrate differing responses to the challenging questions — moral, social and spiritual — posed by the Shoah. These passages are selected from the collection titled, “Dirshuni: Contemporary Women’s Midrash”.

The session will provide our community of learners with an opportunity explore aspects of post-Holocaust thought, and to recall both victims and survivors through the traditional practice of study in memory of those whom we have lost.
