Join Rabbi Benay Lappe for The CRASH Talk, a paradigm-shifting exploration of how the Jewish traditions we recognize today originated not so much from a singular, catastrophic moment of communal upheaval, but an era of multiple, simultaneously shifting values and systems, not unlike our own, followed by a conversation and discussion with Rabbi Sharon Brous.
