Every year EHRS jointly hosts a lecture together with the Yitzchak Rabin B’nai Brith Lodge on the Yarzheit of our former Rabbi from 1963-1993, Michael Leigh z’l.
This year our lecturer is Rabbi Jeremy Rosen. Jeremy Rosen is an Orthodox rabbi, author, and lecturer. He is best known for advocating an approach to Jewish life that is open to the benefits of modernity and tolerant of individual variations while remaining committed to Orthodox halachah. His articles and weekly column appear in publications in several countries, including the Jewish Telegraph and the London Jewish News, and often comments on religious issues on the BBC. He is director of Yakar Educational Foundation in London, and chairman of the Faculty for Comparative Religion in Antwerp.
The lecture will take place on Zoom and also on the EHRS Livestream. If you join us on Zoom you will also be able to ask questions at the end of the lecture. For the Zoom details please email admin@ehrs.uk.
The host for the event is Yitzchak Rabin Lodge and it will take the form of a Zoom interview with Rabbi Jeremy Rosen by Rabbi Mark Goldsmith, Senior Rabbi of Edgware and Hendon Reform Synagogue.
