SUMMARY:Better Together\, Love And Kindness In Judaism with Rabbi Tzvi Muller
DESCRIPTION:BETTER TOGETHER\, LOVE AND KINDNESS IN JUDAISM with Rabbi Tzvi Muller\nIn-Person I Max M. Fisher Federation Building \nMONDAYS\, NOON – 1 PM\nNov. 4\, 11\, 18; Dec. 2\, 9\, 16 \nThe world is desperately in need of more kindness. As Jews\, we are often the\ntargets of the most virulent hatred and cruelty. However\, we must prioritize\nbringing love and goodness into a world that is seriously lacking compassion.\nConnect back to the source of Judaism’s values of love and kindness in our\neffort to bring about a universal healing. We will explore the primary Jewish\ntexts regarding the application of this mitzvah in real life. • What are the\nattitudes\, emotions and behaviors that love requires? • How do we develop\nthose attitudes\, emotions and behavior tendencies? • Can\, and should\, we love\nothers equally to ourselves? • Should we love people who do bad things? • What\nis self-love and is it included in this mitzvah? • Why is this mitzvah\nconsidered the greatest principle of Judaism? \nTuition: $95 \nView event on Jlive: https://jlive.app/events/8569
