OLLI Talk: A Passover Seder Experience (Drake Hall)

The Passover Seder is the annual retelling of the biblical story of the liberation of the Jewish People from slavery in Egypt. It is also a celebration of the goal of freedom for all people, from all that keeps us from achieving our full potential, and of the themes of hope and rebirth of Spring festivals. Together, we will read through the traditional story, relating it to our lives and our world. Unlike at a normal Passover Seder, a meal will not be served; but we will share some of the symbolic foods that enhance the telling of the story.

Rabbi Hillel Katzir lived in Israel for several years, practiced law in three states, and led Jewish congregations in Iowa, Maine, and Colorado. He has taught courses related to Judaism and the Constitution with OLLI at CSU since 2016. In 2013 he published The Evolving Covenant: Jewish History and Why It Matters.
