Through multi-media presentations and personal commentary, he will discuss such diverse topics as: the Masorti (Conservative) Movement, Women of the Wall, Chasidim in Israel, shopping in Mea Shearim, Israel’s health care system, other religions in Israel, Israeli academia, life in the West Bank, a Samaritan Pesach and life on the Gaza border, just to name a few. Dr. Sachs will provide you with a different set of perspectives of life in Israel that we rarely hear about and as Jews, will make us all proud.

Beginning October 29
10:00 am on Zoom
The first three presentations will each relate to one of the three major Jewish movements in Sarasota-Manatee with a Chabad Rabbi discussing Chabad’s approach to Orthodox Judaism (October 29), a Reform Rabbi discussing Reform Judaism (November 5), and a Conservative Rabbi talking about Conservative Judaism (November 12). The final program on November 19 will take the form of a panel discussion with the three rabbis discussing how their movements’ approach a variety of contemporary issues. This promises to be a fascinating series with a lot of time for questions, answers, and interesting dialogue.
Part II, III, and IV are on Thursday, November 5, 12, and 19 at 10:00 am.
