Esther • Week Five
The book of Esther is one of our favorite books in Tanakh. Full of drama, deception, and surprisingly devoid of God, this book allows us to look at diaspora, women in Bible, and power dynamics through a new lens. With teacher Rebecca Chess, join us in a queer and fresh exploration of this Megillah!
