Description

Journey through Nach is a program at the the Young Israel of Lawrence Cedarhurst, learning through Nach in depth one perek a week. Micha creates a private shrine containing an idol, sacred objects, and a priest, revealing the spiritual confusion of Israel during the era of the Judges. When a wandering Levite arrives, Micha hires him as his personal priest and treats his presence as a guarantee of divine favor. The story illustrates how people can reshape religious practice around personal desires while convincing themselves that God approves.
