Introduction to Jewish Mysticism
Instructor: Rabbi Laura Kaplan
The mystical tradition of "Kabbalah" is a metaphorical tapestry of Jewish texts, practices and ideas that invite deep spiritual and theological reflection. Together, we will enter this tapestry, following the shape of its historical development. Using primary and secondary texts along with reflective experiences, we will explore kabbalistic interpretations of creation, God’s nature, prayer, and Tanakh (Hebrew Bible).

Rabbi Laura Kaplan is rabbi of Or Shalom Synagogue, a member of the faculty of the Aleph Rabbinic Program, and one of the first instructors in Vancouver’s Melton program.
