Description

Mark McEntire of Belmont’s College of Theology and Christian Ministry will engage Rabbi Kullock in a conversation about the Jewish understanding of time and the experience of living within dominant Christian cultures that mark time differently. The discussion will highlight differences between the Jewish and Christian calendars and the impact of those differences on the ways Jews and Christians live together in community. This event will take place two days before Rosh Hashanah, the Jewish New Year, and 12 days before Yom Kippur, the most important Jewish holiday and will address the meaning of these days and the Days of Awe between them.
