    Shiur: Intermarriage - How the Bible and the Rabbis viewed it, and why it's different for us

    09:15 – 10:15

    In our Torah portion, Pinchas is rewarded for an act of zealotry against an Israelite man and a Midianite woman.  What was the bible’s problem with mixed-faith relationships, and how was intermarriage viewed in rabbinic literature?  And how does modern Reform Judaism view intermarriage.

    Led by Rabbi Josh (who, with great joy, regularly officiates at celebrations after mixed-faith marriages!)
