SUMMARY:NaKh and Nosh: Bible Beyond the Torah
DESCRIPTION:Although Jews are the people of the book\, there are many parts of the Jewish bible\, the TaNaKh\, we never read in services. The word TaNaKh is an acronym for the Jewish bible’s 3 categories of books: the Torah (the five books of Moses)\, Nevi’im (the Prophets)\, and Ketuvim (the Scriptures). Over the course of the Jewish year\, we read the full Torah\, but we never read the full books of NaKh (Nevi’im and Ketuvim).\nBut that has changed at Shaar Shalom!\nEach session\, we study one more chapter of NaKh: discovering why these words were so sacred to our ancestors\, and why so few Jews read them (outside of Halifax\, that is). Find Rabbi Rank’s table at kiddush for a little “NaKh and Nosh.”

SUMMARY:Dr. Saul Green Memorial Lecture
DESCRIPTION:This year’s Dr. Saul Green Memorial Lecture will be delivered by Dr. Bertha Fuchsman-Small. \nDr. Bertha Fuchsman-Small obtained a BA in History from Swarthmore College in Pennsylvania and a Doctor of Medicine degree from the University of Rochester. She is currently a family physician as well as an assistant professor with McGill University’s Faculty of Medicine. Dr. Fuchsman-Small has spent much of her career in Montreal offering support to ethnically diverse populations\, many of whom are new Canadians. She also worked in northern communities of Ontario and Quebec\, namely in the Cree community of Waskaganish and in the James Bay area\, as well as in rural Queensland\, Australia. Dr. Fuchsman-Small—physician\, humanitarian\, and activist—spent fifteen months in the Democratic Republic of Congo with Médecins Sans Frontières. \nMÉDECINS SANS FRONTIÈRES: MEDICAL HUMANITARIAN ACTIVISM AND THE TENSION BETWEEN PRINCIPLE AND PRAGMATISM\nIn her lecture\, Dr. Fuchsman-Small will discuss how Médecins Sans Frontières uses its declared principles and evolving sense of its institutional role to address issues such as: when and where to intervene and to pull out; when to speak out and to whom; and how to balance integrity with cultural flexibility. \nDr. Saul Green was a graduate of Dalhousie University’s Medical School. He was a fellow of the Royal College of Physicians and Surgeons in Canada as well as the American College of Surgeons. A founding member of the Shaar Shalom Synagogue\, Dr Green cared deeply about the relationship between Judaism\, medicine\, and humanitarianism. \nShaar Shalom Synagogue is a conservative congregation providing egalitarian religious services\, and educational and cultural programs that enhance Judaism for its individuals\, its families and its community. Shaar Shalom is committed to learning\, fellowship and community. \nFounded in 1789\, the University of King’s College is Canada’s oldest chartered university. A small and extraordinarily lively academic community\, King’s is known nationally and internationally for its highly acclaimed interdisciplinary programs in the humanities and journalism.

SUMMARY:Unpacking: Holocaust Survivors Making Montreal Home Post World War II
DESCRIPTION:Seventy years ago\, in 1947\, Canada reluctantly opened its doors to displaced persons (DP) living in Europe. Between 1947 and March 1950\, Canada granted admission to over 98\,000 DPs. Only 11\,064\, or 11.3%\, were Jews – Holocaust survivors. Once in Canada\, 55% of survivors went to Montreal\, 35% to Toronto; and 10% to the rest of Canada.\nThe research of Dr. Zelda Abramson\, sociologist at Acadia University\, traced the lived experiences of Holocaust survivors who settled in Montreal\, drawing on more than 70 interviews\, hundreds of social service case files\, and archival documents.\nThe evening will present several dramatic readings that capture the challenges and successes the survivors faced integrating into Montreal and Canadian life. \nThere is no cost for this event. \nContact: zelda.abramson@acadiau.ca  |  902-585-1273

SUMMARY:NaKh and Nosh: Bible Beyond the Torah
DESCRIPTION:Although Jews are the people of the book\, there are many parts of the Jewish bible\, the TaNaKh\, we never read in services. The word TaNaKh is an acronym for the Jewish bible’s 3 categories of books: the Torah (the five books of Moses)\, Nevi’im (the Prophets)\, and Ketuvim (the Scriptures). Over the course of the Jewish year\, we read the full Torah\, but we never read the full books of NaKh (Nevi’im and Ketuvim).\nBut that has changed at Shaar Shalom!\nEach session\, we study one more chapter of NaKh: discovering why these words were so sacred to our ancestors\, and why so few Jews read them (outside of Halifax\, that is). Find Rabbi Rank’s table at kiddush for a little “NaKh and Nosh.”
