from The Memorial Lectures at Drisha · host Drisha Institute
The Gideon story in the Book of Judges, which unfolds over the nights of Pesach, provides a unique lens through which to consider some important themes in the upcoming Pesach holiday. We will explore how an adolescent Israel, finding its way in the post-Joshua years, is transformed by the very special night “set aside from the six days of Creation” (Talmud RH 11b), and we will reflect on how the lessons from that biblical Pesach might inspire this year’s personal and national redemption.
