Wed 24 Nov. To Everything There is a Season: The 12 Chapters of Kohelet With Morah Yehudis Fishman There is only one book in the Bible that is simultaneously heretical and pious, pessimistic and joyous, paradoxical and direct, profound and obvious, philosophical and down to earth - and looking backwards and forward in life. It is the book of Kohelet, referred to by the Jewish sounding title of Ecclesiastes. We will take an in-depth look at the twelve chapters of this unique book with some of the most famous one-liners in the world, from literal, allegorical, ethical, and mystical perspectives. There will be a special focus on the teachings that Kohelet offers in dealing with the human inevitability of aging. You are guaranteed to come away personally and spiritually. 3800 Kalmia Ave, Boulder, 80301. Linda Loewenstein, Executive Director, 303-447-3313, bjcf@qwest.net. 10.
