Journey to Sinai: A Weekend of Jewish and Interfaith Songs, Stories, and Teachings with Rabbi David and Devorah Zaslow

Rabbi David Zaslow | Jesus: First-Century Rabbi
Lewes Public Library
111 Adams Avenue
Lewes, DE

Rabbi David Zaslow  will speak about his book,  Jesus: First Century Rabbi. This bold, fresh look at the historical Jesus and the Jewish roots of Christianity challenges both Jews and Christians to re-examine their understanding of Jesus' commitment to his Jewish faith. Rabbi Zaslow dispels the myths of disparity between Christianity and Judaism without diluting the unique features of each faith.    (registration will be handled by the library)

Praise for the book:
"Today our faith traditions are in need of healing – both within themselves and with each other. Rabbi Zaslow's book is a dose of sacred medicine for both Christianity and Judaism. He challenges us to face our prejudices, while affirming and celebrating our unique traditions. While Jesus has a different meaning for a Christian and a Jew, reflecting on that can takes us on a deeper and yet more universal journey into our own faith. Based on solid scholarship and a luminous open heart, Zaslow makes a powerful and much needed contribution to the interfaith dialogue."
Joan Borysenko, Ph.D. Author of A Woman's Journey to God, and co-author of Your Soul's Compass
