Adult Purim and Megillah Reading

Thursday, February 25, 2021 13 Adar 5781

7:30 PM - 9:00 PM

The obligation to hear Megillat Esther  (the “scroll” or book of Esther) on Purim is one not only for children, but for adults.  As we read this ancient tale, our rabbinic intern – Jill Rubin – and Rabbi Z will explore with participants some of the moral questions raised by the Purim story.

Among the questions we will explore are: 
► Does wealth and the focus on pleasure harden one’s heart to the suffering of others? 
► Do women still have to “hide” something of themselves to get ahead?
► Who is more evil - the one who incites hatred or the one who are apathetic to those who incite?
► What moral compromises are we willing to make in the face of evil? And when? … and MORE!
