What is the Jewish Bible?


Have you ever wondered?

Is it the Old Testament? The Torah? The Christian Bible? And who decided what is in it?

 
Join us to explore these questions Friday, July 11.

We will share a delicious, no-experience-necessary Shabbat dinner, eat, laugh, and learn. All are welcome.

Time: 6:15 PM
Place: Jewish Gateways' cozy home near El Cerrito Plaza and BART station
Childcare: available by reservation

After gathering at 6:15, we'll continue with:

6:30 - Candle lighting and dinner
7:30 - Rabbi Bridget Wynne will lead a lively interactive teaching on what's in the Jewish Bible, what it is called, and how and by whom it was put together
8:30 - Dessert and schmoozing (time to hang out and chat)

Space is limited, so RSVP is required.

 
Please contact Rabbi Bridget Wynne at Jewish Gateways, (510) 559-8140, or rabbibridget@jewishgateways.org, for more information, and to make a reservation and get directions and your food assignment. If your schedule doesn't allow you to bring a dish to share, we offer you the option of contributing $7 toward the dinner.
