with Rabbi Jacob Fine
Wednesday, March 12, 7:00-8:30 pm 
 
On the surface of things, Purim and Yom Kippur appear as though they are total opposites—with Purim’s focus on feasting and merry making, and Yom Kippur’s solemnity and denial of sensory pleasure. And yet, according to tradition, these two holidays are spiritually connected. We will explore these connections with the hope that they might deepen our understanding and experience of both festivals.
