What They Didn’t Teach You in Hebrew School: Temple Israel’s High School Program

Discussion: Sexual assault  – Tamar & Amnon

Join Rabbi Joshua Neely for the next installment of our Teen learning program. This months discussions will revolve around predatory behavior. Beginning with Tamar & Amnon. Predators come in all shapes and sizes and even within the royal family of David. What motivates these destructive behaviors? How has Judaism sought to prevent them? Why do so many pop-culture references implicitly endorse mild forms of predatory behavior?
