If you are lucky, you will live to see your parents begin to need you in the way you once needed them. You will feel it most in the small things: lifting a cup of water to your mother’s lips; adjusting the light your father can sleep. Laying a hand on his forehead. And you will be desperately sad, but also lucky, because each time you do these thin…

51:24Prague at the turn of the 17th century was the site of a critical period in the development of pre-modern Jewish thought. The great rabbis of that city developed a unique theology, synthesizing the rational philosophical tradition that shaped religious thought in the Middle Ages with the growing influence of Kabbalah. In doing so, they created a ne…

Mishpatim, after the narrative path we’ve experienced so far in Shemot, can feel dizzying. Until now, Shemot has seemed like a straightforward story: slavery, Exodus, and revelation. It is a narrative that unfolds in a basically clear order, with a clear str¡ucture. It is a story that can be read, if not precisely like any other book, at least in m…

Tu Bishvat has become a day on which many Jews express gratitude for the earth and its bounty. In this sense, it is closely connected to the practice of reciting blessings over food before we eat.

The Exodus from Egypt is, in one way of telling it, a ghost story. This is not the usual genre we assign to the tale. We describe it as a story of liberation. The emotions we associate with it are a mixture of triumph, joy, and awe. But stories are created, in part, by where we choose to begin and end them, and the Exodus is a story with many begin…

44:52In a time of abounding artificial intelligence, we will attempt to define what makes intelligence "non" artificial. Our jumping-off point will be the Hebrew word da'at, which is prominently used in Jewish law to assert the importance of mental awareness, intention, and consent. As we excavate the many meanings of da'at, we will ask: What are the ch…

Whose story do we tell on the Seder night? The answer, at first, seems obvious: the story we tell is our own, the story of our deliverance from slavery to freedom. It is the core story of our people. It is the grand drama of Jewish history in which we are still enmeshed today. But this week’s parashah offers another interpretation, one in which it …

Growing up as the only Jew in my class in Iowa, I got lots of practice telling the story of Hanukkah.
