Edges of Judaism: An Introduction to the Ivri Path (Session 3 of 3)
What does it mean to walk the edge of tradition — to be an Ivri, one who crosses over?
Intro to Ivri is a three-part, in-person journey into the Ivri Path, the radical theology at the heart of Temple of the Stranger. Rooted in Kabbalah, Jewish mysticism, and the Shechinah, the exiled feminine Divine of our tradition, the Ivri Path is embodied, inclusive, and transformational. These intimate classes, taught by Rav Jericho and hosted in the warmth of a community member's Brooklyn home, invite us into a thrilling intellectual and spiritual journey of awakening and connection.
Intro to Ivri is open to folks 18+ who are Jewish, Jew-ish, and not-Jewish. No prior knowledge of Judaism is required. This is not a class in Jewish history, it’s an invitation to step into a lineage of seekers and holy disruptors.
These sessions will take place at a private residence in Williamsburg, Brooklyn. Space is very limited. Registration will close 24 hours before the first session begins. Due to the intimate nature of this material, sessions will not be recorded.
