Shabbat morning services will be immediately followed by a Lunch &\; Learn led by Mishael Zion entitled\, "\;Companionship\, or Death: Stories of Relationships in the Talmud."\;
\;
The Talmud and Midrash provide a wonderful repository of stories and discussions which provide deep insight into our relationships: between friends\, parents and children\, women and men\, and teachers and students. Often criticizing the social structure or the rabbis themselves\, these stories contain deep insights into the way men and women treated eachother &ndash\; then and now. We will unpack two of these stories and discussion what they meant for audiences then &ndash\; and now.
\;

He is a Faculty Fellow at the Skirball Center for Adult Jewish Learning in New York and a student at Yeshivat Chovevei Torah Rabbinical School.

For more on Septembers of Shiraz:
In the aftermath of the Iranian revolution\, rare-gem dealer Isaac Amin is arrested\, wrongly accused of being a spy. Terrified by his disappearance\, his family must reconcile a new world of cruelty and chaos with the collapse of everything they have known. As Isaac navigates the tedium and terrors of prison\, forging tenuous trusts\, his wife feverishly searches for him\, suspecting\, all the while\, that their once-trusted housekeeper has turned on them and is now acting as an informer. And as his daughter\, in a childlike attempt to stop the wave of baseless arrests\, engages in illicit activities\, his son\, sent to New York before the rise of the Ayatollahs\, struggles to find happiness even as he realizes that his family may soon be forced to embark on a journey of incalculable danger. A page-turning literary debut\, The Septembers of Shiraz simmers with questions of identity\, alienation\, and love\, not simply for a spouse or a child\, but for all the intangible sights and smells of the place we call home. \;
