In this session, we'll tackle the question: Does Judaism truly care about love? Journey with us as we explore how influential Jewish leaders, spanning from the Talmud to contemporary times, have consistently emphasized the profound significance of hesed (love manifest through action). Discover how this core value serves as a powerful means of embodying God's love in our interactions with others, enriching both our lives and our communities.

This class is for folks of all learning backgrounds.

Hi! I'm Elie Lehmann. As the Director of Hadar Boston I learn Torah with communities all around Greater Boston (and beyond). We explore texts deeply and honestly, engaging with the multivocal wisdom of our ancestors in ways that resonate with (and sometime challenge) our lived experience.

I live in Newton with my wife, Anya, and our three kids, Razi, Shalev, and Ziv.
