C10. Divine Intervention in Jewish Texts and Tradition

 What is the role of miracles and God in Jewish tradition and Lore? Come and journey with us through the realms of hope, miraculous tales, and even the absurd as we look at texts that delve into the roles and existence of prophets, talking animals, speech impediments, Divine voice, angels, Rabbinic theology, moving trees and rivers, and more.

Access to a Bible may be helpful for this class although all texts that we look at together will be provided.
