Description

As part of the winter semester of Jewish Center University, this class was taught by Rabbi Ariel Rackovsky, Assistant Rabbi at The Jewish Center of the Upper West Side. In this class, we will attempt to gain a nuanced picture of a different biblical protagonist each week, with a view toward understanding their inner lives, and ultimately, ourselves. This special Purim edition discusses King Achashverosh.
