Hartman Institute: Engaging Israel: Foundations for a New Relationship

JERUSALEM’S HARTMAN INSTITUTE

“Engaging Israel: Foundations for a New Relationship”
The goal of the Engaging Israel project is to respond to the growing feelings of disenchantment and disinterest toward Israel among an ever-increasing number of Jews worldwide by creating a new narrative regarding the significance of Israel for Jewish life. The narrative will serve as a foundation for a new convenant between Israel and world Jewry, elevating the existing discourse from one with a crisis-based focus to one rooted in Jewish values and ideas. Join Rabbi Linder and an Israel and North American-based research team (with the help of technology) as they help establish a new convenant for world Jewry and Israel based on a narrative of Jewish values and ideas. This narrative will encourage Jews to engage with Israel and to act on their vision of what they believe can and should shape the modern Jewish nation and its policies. Registration is required as follows: $18 per class/$100 per package. Program dates are Thursday evenings from 7:00–9:00 pm, December 1, 22, January 5, 19, February 2, 16, March 15, 29 and April 19. Registration includes program material.

RSVP with payment to Adina at azarchan@templesolel.org by November 4.
