SUMMARY:Open Circle Adult Education: Shir HaShirim - The Song of Songs
DESCRIPTION:Discovering the hidden jewels of Shir HaShirim\nOpen Circle – Fall 2023\nIn-person at The Boston Synagogue\nThursday evenings 7:00-8:30pm\nInstructor: Rabbi Mona Strick \nRegister\nRabbi Akiva said that if all the other Books of the Bible are considered “Kedoshim” Holy\, then Shir Ha Shirim must be considered “Kodesh Kodashim\, (the Holiest of the Holy) \nJoin us for a journey into Shir Hashirim\, the Song of Songs\, a spectacular love poem. \nIn addition to being erotic & evocative it contains some of the most beautiful & unique Biblical language. Neither God nor Israel are mentioned in this scroll\, one of the five megillot in the section of Ketuvim (writings) of the Bible. \n\nWhy is this conversation between lovers in the Tanach?\nWhat is holy about it?\nHow is it connected to Shabbat & Passover? (the times when we read it)\n\nWe will look closely at the text together with a variety of translations & midrashim as well as similar ancient love poetry. This remarkable book\, only 8 chapters long contains mystical secrets & is an invitation for us to open our own hearts to a powerful love.
