Rinat: Tuesday brief, December 26, 2017

Congregation Rinat Yisrael

As a reminder, Rav Glickman's shiurim will not meet tonight.
The remaining schedule for Rabbi Glickman's shiurim is as follows:
Tuesday, January 2, 8:00pm - Eruv Tavshillin and Eruv Techumim
Tuesday, January 9, 8:00pm - Mechirat Chametz

Tomorrow, Wednesday December 27 at 8:15pm is the final class of Yoetzet Halacha Shoshana Samuels 3 part Taharat HaMishpacha Refresher course.

Women of the community are welcome to join Yoetzet Halacha Shoshana Samuels in a review of the foundations and practicalities of the laws of Jewish family life. The course will include source-study, real-life scenarios and discussion of the unique ways these laws affect our lives and relationships. Each class is independent from the previous one, so join even if it's your first session! Count Down to Spiritual Rebirth meets Wednesday, December 27, 8:15pm at Shaare Tefillah, 510 Claremont Avenue, Teaneck.
This final class will delve into the process of becoming tehora from the necessary waiting time prior to counting, to counting the seven clean days and approaching the mikvah. There is much to know about each of these steps that can clarify many questions that come up for women "on the ground". The series will culminate with the laws of preparation for, and immersion, in the mikvah, allowing us to come full circle back to "The Jewish Approach to Marital Intimacy", as a woman returns to her status of tehora.

Parasha shiur: Thursday, December 28, at 8:30pm - Rabbi Murray Sragow will be speaking.

"Jewish Ritual as Depicted in the Movies"
Hollywood has been incorporating Jewish rituals into both television and movies for more than a century—sometimes as kitsch, sometimes as an ethnic flourish, sometimes for dramatic effect, and sometimes even as comedy. In this multimedia presentation, we'll look at a number of the most fascinating examples and discuss trends in representation, whether the rituals get botched, and—most importantly—the function of these foreign-language prayers in American entertainment.

If All the Seas Were Ink is an exploration of the surprising and poignant intersections between the Talmud she learned each day and her own journey through divorce, Aliyah, dating, marriage, and motherhood. If All the Seas Were Ink has been hailed by Avivah Zornberg as "an intimate and eloquent portrait of a young woman’s passionate loves and fears." Dara Horn calls it ,"A stunning, gorgeous memoir.”
