November 30, 2020 Authentic Jewish Living with Yiscah Smith – Episode 32: Rabbanit Nechama Goldman Barash
This was originally posted on Authentic Jewish Living with Yiscah Smith. From Yiscah: "Nechama Goldman Barash is a role model for spiritual authentic living, a dedicated Torah scholar and educator specializing in matters of gender and Jewish law AND an activist in interfaith dialogue promoting non violence and understanding between Israeli and Palestinian communities."

Nechama is a member of the Pardes faculty and a frequent member of our digital learning and podcasts. You can hear other teachings from Nechama by clicking here.

Additionally, Nechama will be directing this winter's Pardes Learning Seminar: "Who Am I?: The Complexity of Identity in the 21st Century." The Seminar dates are December 27-31. For more details, including the schedule and how to register, please visit the Pardes website. As with this past summer's seminar, this will be on zoom, so it is globally accessible for all wanting to participate and benefit from this incredibly inspiring program. Yiscah will be teaching as well and how special it will be to learn from both of these scholars. Please consider taking advantage of this special opportunity.

November 30, 2020 VaYishlach 5781: Facing Forward
Jacob is a man divided within himself, as suggested by the paradoxical statement that "Jacob remained alone," yet "a man struggled with him." With an emphasis on the recurring "guiding words" in the text, we will explore the nature of Jacob's internal split, as well as the critical first steps he takes toward integration. We will take a moment to consider the relevance of Jacob's struggles to today's global health crisis, as well as a potential matriarchal angle on this patriarchal story.

In this podcast we will look at the broad sweep of the narrative that includes the complex dynamic and relationship between two sisters married to one man. After summarizing the entire Torah portion through the lens of their relationship, we will focus on several midrashim that reinforce the love and connection that unifies them despite all of the underlying tension and reminds us of the eternal bond of siblings for the positive.

November 18, 2020 5781 — Toldot: The Blessings of Putting On and Taking Off Disguises
Sometimes we need to shed our disguises in order to discover who we really are. At other times we need to dress up in disguises to remind us of who we want to be. The story of Jacob and Esau and their rabbinic commentaries help us to understand the complexity of identity formation, including notions of gender. Who am I? What does it mean to be a man or woman? What does it mean to be me?

November 09, 2020 5781 — Chaye Sarah: Looking for Love
At least half of the relationships in our modern times don't last. When we are looking for love that will last, how do we know what to look for? And once we find love, how do we rekindle the sparks despite the familiarity and routine of our years together?
Two midrashim and a life coach's tip offer insights into the relationship between Rebecca and Isaac, and offer a twinkling of life wisdom that applies to this day.

November 03, 2020 5781 — Vayera: Life’s Concentric Circles
This week's parasha contrasts two acts of hospitality: Avraham welcomes three strangers to his tent at Elonei Mamrei, and Lot later welcomes two of them to his home in Sodom. Superficially, the episodes are similar but we will discover that in fact they are worlds apart. The contrast speaks to the great power of family and community in shaping our lives.
