Upcoming Teaching

Over the summer, people are welcome to enroll in any of the earlier series of either course. For full info on both courses, click above on "Zohar Courses."

My recent book, Becoming Elijah: Prophet of Transformation, was selected as the inaugural winner of the Rabbi Jonathan Sacks Book Prize, a prize established by Yeshiva University in honor of Rabbi Lord Jonathan Sacks. Rabbi Sacks was a British Orthodox rabbi, philosopher and theologian who served as the Chief Rabbi of Great Britain from 1991-2013. Here is a recording of the Sacks Book Prize event, March 26, 2023, at Kehilath Jeshurun, NYC. This is a conversation between Daniel Matt and Dr. Shira Weiss on Becoming Elijah. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=O3I4Z6NJHqA Here is a description of the prize from Yeshiva University's website https://www.yu.edu/sacksbookprize "The Sacks Book Prize will be awarded annually to an author of a recently published work of Jewish ideas deeply sourced in Jewish texts, with broad appeal within and beyond the Jewish community. The author of the winning work will be awarded a $50,000 prize. Additional funds will be used to help the author promote the book."
