Dec. 9, 2021 Dear Friends,   One of the most emotional and significant moments in the entire Torah occurs in this week’s Torah portion, when Judah encounters Joseph.    We'll discuss why it is so important at our Shabbat Evening Service (7:30 PM).   The Book of Judges describes a dramatic but troubling chapter in the early history of our ancestors.    For the next few weeks we read excerpts of this often overlooked part of the Hebrew Bible.    You're always welcome to join us at our Zoom Shabbat Morning Torah Study (10:00 AM).   Start reading: The  next Adas Emuno Book Club meets Jan. 10 and we are discussing the Nobel prize winning Isaac Bashevis Singer's classic The Magician of Lublin. Shabbat shalom, Rabbi Schwartz
