SUMMARY:Jewish Historians\, History\, and Historiography
DESCRIPTION:Jewish Historians\, History\, and Historiography\nAndrew Stein\nOctober 8\, 15\, 22\, November 5\, 12 December 3\, 10\, January 7\, 14\, 21\, February 4\, 11\, March 3\, 10\, 17\, 24\n9:30-10:45\, on Zoom \nThis course will take a broad view of Jewish history\, how it was envisioned over the\ncenturies\, and how over about the last 250 years\, modern Jewish historians have\ntrained\, written\, taught\, and practiced their craft. We will focus primarily on the period\nfrom about 1500 to 2000 CE and examine a range of themes and approaches in Jewish\nhistory\, the legacy of exemplary historians of the Jewish experience\, and their changing\nperspectives\, methods\, and topics. We’ll also consider the continuum ranging from\ndispassionate\, professional historians sorting out the actual record\, versus history as\npopular memory\, a source of identity\, and drawing lessons from the past for the present\nand future of the Jewish people. Many among us also have probed Jewish history as\npart of our own family history research\, both in America and in our ancestors’ places of\norigin. Finally\, we will consider the role of archives and museums in conserving Jewish\nhistory and shaping our understanding of it. \nRegistration is required – click here to register!

SUMMARY:Hasidic Wisdom - It's Not Just Which Fur Hat
DESCRIPTION:Hasidic Wisdom – It’s Not Just Which Fur Hat\nTaught by: Cantor Caro\nWednesdays\, October 11\, November 8\, December 13\, January 31\, February 28\, March 27\, April 10\n12:00 – 1:00pm\, Hybrid \nHasidism was the response to an overly intellectual Judaism in the 17th century in\nEastern Europe. The Hasidic masters applied their insights of Jewish mysticism to\ndiscovering paths to one’s inner spiritual life in the midst of the challenges of everyday\nliving. Looking at the lineage of these sages\, we will explore some of their parables and\nsayings\, separating ourselves from our pre-conceived notions of Hasidic communities\ntoday in order to learn from the beautiful and inspired writings of these earlier teachers\nand sages. \nWe will be using Martin Buber’s Tales of The Hasidim – please purchase your own copy for the class. \nRegistration is required – click here to register!

SUMMARY:Democracy\, Israel\, and Zionism
DESCRIPTION:Democracy\, Israel\, and Zionism\nTaught by: Rabbi Holzman\nTuesdays\, October 24\, November 28\, December 19\, January 9\, March 19\, April 16\n6:30-8:00pm\, in person\, online by request \nZionism is the idea that Jews must have a state in our\nancestral homeland. That simple statement has been\ncontroversial since its inception. For many of us\, liberal\ndemocracy reflects core tenets of our Judaism\, meaning\nthat the Jewish state must be a democratic state\, and\nthe recent street protests in Israel over the proposed\njudicial overhaul reflect the difficulty of applying all\nthese ideas. Over the past seven years\, NVHC has been\nexperimenting at the intersection of Judaism and\ndemocracy and this year we will turn our focus to how\nthis intersection affects our Zionism and support for the\nState of Israel. This class requires no prior knowledge\nand will be conducted in person with a hybrid option. \nRegistration is required – click here to register!

SUMMARY:Congregational Conversation On Israel
DESCRIPTION:Dear NVHC Family\, \nThe last month\, since the October 7th Hamas attack on southern Israel\, has been gut-wrenching for all of us. Many members of NVHC have spoken to us about loved ones in Israel\, about connections to people who were killed or kidnapped\, about family with children called up to serve. A fog of grief\, anger\, and fear has settled on all of us. To make matters worse\, the crisis has caused a spike in anti-Semitism all over the world\, and college campuses have become exceedingly hostile to Israel and to Jews. This is a time for communal solidarity. \nWe invite you to gather with us in the NVHC sanctuary on November 9th at 7:00 PM to reflect on what has passed and talk about what’s ahead for Israel and for American Jewry. In a tragic coincidence\, that date is near the end of sh’loshim (the first 30 days of mourning since the funeral) and is the 85th anniversary of Krsitallnacht (the Night of Broken Glass in Germany that many people see as a key step in the run-up to the Holocaust). As we mourn we note that the end of sh’loshim is when a mourner begins to emerge from the immediate grief and begins work on building life ahead. That is what we need to do as a congregation. We ask ourselves: \nHow can we support and honor Jews as the suffering continues in Israel and around the world? \nHow can we maintain our support for the State of Israel as we are bombarded with images of the horror of war in Gaza? \nHow can we rely on our history of interfaith partnership and rebuilding democracy to create a better discourse around Israel and Palestine here in America? \nWhen we gather we will rely upon the Rebuilding Democracy Project’s Congregational Conversation format which we have developed to deepen our discourse and create opportunities to foster viewpoint diversity. The evening will include prayer\, study\, silence\, story-telling and the sharing of ideas. We do this within the covenantal relationship we share as members of NVHC\, because our communal values ensure dignity and respect for all perspectives. \nCentral to the event is storytelling. If this situation has had an impact on your life in some way\, please share your story with us. Think about how you have been experiencing this\, and consider sharing your story with your NVHC community. If you are interested\, please contact ShowClick Here to View Contact Information in advance so that we can make sure you are part of the program.
