*About the Learning with Rabbi Josh Mikutis:

Behold, I stand here: Between Individuality and Collectively in the High Holiday Liturgy

Thursday, October 3rd | 12:15-1:15 PM | Beit Midrash

Tefilla walks a peculiar line between being highly individual and deeply collective. The liturgy during the High Holidays profoundly reflect this: occasionally, we speak personally in the first-person singular while other times we use the collective through the first-person plural. Why do we oscillate between these different registers and what might we learn from this?

About Rabbi Joshua Mikutis: Rabbi Joshua Mikutis is the Director of Design and Jewish Learning at JDC Entwine. After nearly two decades on the East Coast, Josh is a recent Seattle transplant with his wife Anna Bennett and their kids, Teddy and Etta. This Fall at CBS, Rabbi Joshua Mikutis will be teaching one of our adult ed courses; Melton Course: Israeli Literature.

Come and join us for outdoor Tashlikh on Thursday, October 3rd, between 5:00 PM and 6:00 PM, hosted at the home of one of our members!
