Trouble on the Yellow Brick Road: What Went Wrong During Our Ancestors’ Sojourn in the Desert?

February 4, 2022 @ 11:00 am - 12:15 pm

  • This event has passed.

We will take an in-depth look at some of the debacles during the Jewish people’s trek through the desert, including the stories of the Golden Calf, the Spies, and the Korach Mutiny. We will look at the narratives, text, philosophical issues, what these stories might say to us today, and compare them to the way they were presented in the movie, The Ten Commandments.
