The Book of Ruth: Chapter 1, Part 1 - with Rabbi Deborah Kahn-Harris

This is the first of a series in which Elliott is joined by his teacher Rabbi Deborah Kahn-Harris (Principal of Leo Baeck College) to take a deep-dive into the Book of Ruth (the book that Jews traditionally read at Shavuot). They thought they could get through the whole of chapter 1 in just one episode, but it is so rich that they will actually need two. The second installment will be out on Thursday.You can read along with them in any bible, or you can use Sefaria: https://www.sefaria.org/Ruth.1?lang=biYou can find out more about Rabbi Deborah's book here: https://rowman.com/ISBN/9781666932102/Polyamory-and-Reading-the-Book-of-Ruth If you want to find out more about Leo Baeck College, and what it takes to study for the rabbinate, and how you can support the college, please check out their website: www.lbc.ac.uk. If you have any comments or questions, or if there are any particular topics you would like us to about, please be in touch with us at [email protected] – we would love to hear from you.
