Rabbi Shai Held:
Judaism is About Love
Wednesday, October 30, 2024, 7:30 PM
We are honored to welcome back Rabbi Shai Held, one of the most influential Jewish thinkers and leaders in America. Rabbi Held is President and Dean of the Hadar Institute in New York City. He received the prestigious Covenant Award for Excellence in Jewish Education. He has been named multiple times to Newsweek’s list of the most influential rabbis in America and to the Forward's list of the most prominent Jews in the world. He is the author of Abraham Joshua Heschel: The Call of Transcendence (2013) and The Heart of Torah: Essays on the Weekly Torah Portion (2017). His new book, Judaism is About Love, has just been published by Farrar, Straus, & Giroux.
There is no charge to attend and Rabbi Held will sign books at the event. If pre-ordered through [words] bookstore in Maplewood, the book will be waiting for you the night of the event. When ordering, put in the notes whether you want the book brought to the temple or if you will pick it up; their address is 79 Maplewood Ave, Maplewood, NJ 07040.
In addition, if you cannot attend the event but would like a signed copy, pre-order the book and put in the “notes” section of the order that you would like the book signed; you can then pick it up from the temple office after the event.
The evening is co-sponsored by:
