EXOTIC JUDAISM

FRIDAYS 10:30 AM - 11:45 PM Starting February 8 (Eight Weeks)

Judaism and Jewish traditions are replete with exotic rituals and practices that have kept the Jewish people alive for nearly four millennia. But today, vast numbers of Jews do not practice, indulge or even know about these matters, let alone practice them. There is a fascination today with knowing more about ancestry and family history. This course is intended to bring the learner into sharper focus with traditional and lost Jewish practices many of which today are seen as arcane. There are some "doozies."
