Note: This is a hybrid class

Jews don't believe in hell - or do we? What about resurrection? Does consciousness linger?

This four-session course explores how Jewish views of the afterlife have developed over the past 4,000 years and what they might mean today. We'll begin with the biblical concept of Sheol, continue through apocalyptic resurrection beliefs of the Second Temple period, examine rabbinic and medieval interpretations, briefly explore Hasidic perspectives, and conclude with modern theological and psychological approaches.

We’ll consider how different Jewish communities—Orthodox, Conservative, and Reform—have interpreted these beliefs and what their evolution might mean for us as Reform Jews today.

This class will be taught by Doug Sparks
