It Takes Two to Torah | Book Talk

Please join us on Sunday evening, January 12th in the Lower Level Beit Midrash, for a talk with Abigail Pogrebin and Rabbi Dov Linzer. They will discuss their new book titled It Takes Two to Torah.

Abigail Pogrebin is the author of the National Jewish Book Award finalist "My Jewish Year: 18 Holidays, One Wondering Jew” and “Stars of David: Prominent Jews Talk About Being Jewish”. She’s written for The Atlantic, the Forward, and Tablet, and moderates public conversations for The Streicker Center and the Jewish Broadcasting Service.

Rabbi Dov Linzer is the President and Rosh HaYeshiva (Rabbinic Head) of Yeshivat Chovevei Torah, an Orthodox rabbinical school and Torah center, which promotes a more open and inclusive Orthodoxy. He has written for the Forward, Tablet, and The New York Times, and hosted highly popular Torah podcasts.

It takes two to study, two to explain, two -- especially these two -- to enchant the reader.
"Here is Torah both profound and accessible, touching our everyday experience." - Rabbi David Wolpe, Author, Max Webb Rabbi Emeritus of Sinai Temple
"This conversation is in turn fascinating, challenging, upsetting, intriguing, surprising, playful, judgmental, pluralistic, and full of living wisdom for today." - Rabbi Irving (Yitz) Greenberg, author, The Triumph of Life: A Narrative Theology of Judaism

Copies of the book will be available for purchase and signing after the talk.
