Judaism is About Love

A Hadar course led by Rabbi Eliana Willis and Hebrew College Rabbinic Intern Carrie Watkins

Despite what you may have heard, Judaism is actually a religion of love. This is the transformative claim at the core of Rabbi Shai Held’s groundbreaking book Judaism is About Love: Reclaiming the Heart of Jewish Life.

In this 7-session course from Hadar, we’ll dive into the foundational texts that inspire this theology and explore what it means to place love at the center of Jewish life and practice. Together, we’ll consider how this vision of love might transform not only our understanding of Judaism, but also the way we live it every day. Join us for the format that works best for you:
