Breaking Out of Personal and Family Patterns of Behavior: Esther as a Model of Growth and Courage

  • Summary

  • A virtual event presentation by Rabbi David Jaffe


    The event was co-sponsored by Temple Emanuel


    About The Event:

    According to 20th Century Mussar master, Rabbi Eliyahu Dessler, much of our behavior is determined by past choices, habits, education, and family culture. Patterns of behavior can be passed down from generation to generation, for better or for worse. The Purim and Pesach season offers us Jewish spiritual technologies for seeing and breaking out of these patterns. This session will explore Esther as a model of facing and overcoming limiting behaviors that offer us a model for the movement towards freedom that begins during these days of Purim to Pesach.
