Holy Conversations: Exploring the Life and Times of King David
August 20, 2023 @ 3:30 PM – 5:00 PM EDT
Rabbi Joseph H. Krakoff
and
Archbishop Allen Vigneron
**Sundays, August 20, 27 3:30-5pm**
The Berman at The J
King David was the second king of Israel. As a poet, musician and composer of
the Psalms, he was well-known for his incredible musical acumen. As a skillful
warrior, his strength and prowess on the battlefield was unequaled. But King
David was also of deeply questionable moral and ethical character. He
committed a sin so grave that his reputation was permanently transformed. How
do the Catholic and Jewish traditions understand the persona of King David? Is
he a hero or merely a sinner?
Do these two great religious traditions overlook or seek to underplay King
David’s personal miscues as a flawed human being because he was such an
important public figure?
Join Archbishop Allen Vigneron and Rabbi Joseph H. Krakoff for two consecutive
Sunday afternoon conversations where they discuss, explore and analyze,
agreeing and seriously disagreeing the life and times of King David.
