Tuesdays with Torah | Sacred Dimensions: What is “Holiness”?

The Jewish tradition is teeming with holy places, holy days, holy items, and even holy people… But what does it truly mean for something to be deemed “holy” within Jewish life? This course invites us to explore the spiritual significance of both time and space within Judaism, uncovering the holiness inherent in both. From the sacred rhythms of the Jewish calendar and holy days to the holy spaces of ancient temples and contemporary homes, we will investigate the rituals, symbols, and practices that imbue times and spaces with sanctity. Join us as we uncover the sacredness that permeates every moment and every corner of the Jewish experience.
