From Sukkot To Thanksgiving with Rabbi Shalom Kantor
October 24, 2023 @ 12:00 PM – 1:30 PM EDT
**From Sukkot To Thanksgiving – Appreciating The Relationship Between Jews,
Food, And The World We Live In **
For Jews, the fall season is bookended by two holidays focused on gratitude
and food: ** _Sukkot and Thanksgiving_**. This fall we will increase our
understanding and appreciation of how Jewish life and contemporary American
life intersect through the prism of food. We will examine how Judaism’s
relationship with food is so much more than challah and kugel. Looking at a
“food product” by its constituent nutrients, or at Jewish tradition solely
through a traditionally Jewish prism, fails to address the entirety of who we
are and how we create meaningful lives. Using traditional Jewish texts, modern
texts and the texts of our own lives, we will gain a deeper understanding of
our relationship to the food we eat. We will explore blessings and gratitude,
kashrut, and its possible relationship to the environment and how it all
affects us, and the way each one of us relates to the food that sustains us
each day.
