Sandra Seltzer Silberman HBI Conversations Series Featuring Tamar Biala, editor of “Dirshuni: Contemporary Women’s Midrash”
October 19, 2022 @ 12:30 pm - 1:30 pm
no cost
Join HBI as we speak and learn with Tamar Biala, editor of “Dirshuni: Contemporary Women’s Midrash,” the first ever English edition of an historic collection of midrashim composed by Israeli women.
“Women’s stories are told much less than men’s in the Torah. Many women aren’t even named. ‘Dirshuni’ is a step forward; it carves out a place for contemporary women to see themselves in the sacred texts. It focuses on the courage, the heartbreak, and the fight of biblical women — and it brings them to life.” –Jewish Book Council, read the full review: https://bit.ly/3TvShcQ.
