Where is Judaism Going Over the Next 100 Years?

Jewish TALK JSCN

Dan and Lex invite the audience to engage in the idea of a virtual synagogue, one without walls and without boundaries, as if it was on a completely new Jewish planet. Dan Libenson studied at Harvard law school where he graduated with honours and spent five years as a law professor. He’s been closely involved with Hillel in Harvard and Chicago and now devotes his life to working with the Jewish community. He believes people seek connection to Jewish traditions in a way that they perceive as authentic or meaningful but not necessarily tied to some preconceived notion of the “right way”. He is Co-founder of Judaism Unbound podcast. Lex Rofeberg is a 29 year old Jewish educator and organiser. He graduated with a degree in Judaic Studies from Brown University and was also involved with Hillel. He worked for the Institute of southern Jewish life based in Jackson Missouri where he was an education fellow. He is interested in non-traditional ways of studying Talmud and is currently studying to be a rabbi. Along with Dan he co-founded the Judaism Unbound podcast. Recorded at Limmud Festival 2019
