The Prophetic Voice in the Modern World – Rabbi Scott Shafrin Zoom Series

Join Rabbi Scott Shafrin, the Associate Rabbi and Religious School Director at Kol Rinah, to begin an exploration of the prophetic voice in the modern world. Since the very beginning of Jewish tradition, the prophet has stood out as an anomaly within Jewish life: both a position of leadership and an outsider, a person of respect and a pariah whose words are ignored. Yet, the words of the prophets are repeated often, as both Haftarot (readings from the prophets) on Shabbat (Sabbath) and holidays, and timeless truths that speak to our values in every age. Together, we will look at how the voices of many of the different prophets ring out clearly from the past, calling us back to our essential values in this and every generation.
