Reform Temple member and

Eedman@comcast.net. 410 Montgomery Ave.,
Wynnewood. Talmud Class.

The rabbinic prohibitions against
shaming another often lie in stark
contrast to stories of shaming and
competition among those very
same rabbis. This class begins
by examining texts on monetary
compensation for shaming (Who
must pay? How much? For what
kinds of shaming?) and then moves
on to examine stories of rabbis
shaming one another. The course
asks the overarching question: What
is the Talmud trying to tell us about
shame/shaming? 10:30 a.m. Har Zion
