Hello friends. I hope that you're doing well and will consider attending the next Posen Library online webinar in two weeks with our partner/host the Siegal Lifelong Learning program at Case Western Reserve University.
For two thousand years, Jews and Christians have been reading the Hebrew Bible. Are there new ways to read it in the 21st century? To uncover what’s new in this ancient document, join *Alison Joseph*, *Biblical Scholar, and Senior Editor of **The** Posen Library, *in conversation with *Deborah Dash Moore*, Editor-in-Chief of *T*he Posen Library; Frederick G. L. Huetwell Professor of History and Professor of Judaic Studies, University of Michigan, as they discuss what can be learned about the Torah laws when you set them alongside non-biblical legal documents of the period? *T**his free online event will occur on Wednesday, April 28 at 4:00 PM EDT as part of The Posen Library of Jewish Culture and Civilization Series for the Laura and Alvin Siegal Lifelong Learning Program at Case Western Reserve University. **Register for the event here* <https://urldefense.com/v3/__https://lifelonglearningcleveland.org/public/Course/browse?courseid=26934__;!!KGKeukY!kzwSkXtkZfoLgAWTuzZaInQ7G0swhqRtncUo3b2F_K__skT2x9vIDH4xjsAfXUOpAxU$ > *.* How does reading Miriam’s song next to Deborah’s song change how we understand these pieces of poetry? What can artifacts of this period show us about daily life in ancient Israel—its religious practices, household tasks, architecture, and art? Explore how we can read the Bible today in relation to the development of Judaism from ancient times to the present. We hope you’ll join us for this lively conversation based on the recently *released* *The Posen Library of Jewish Culture and Civilization Volume 1, Ancient Israel, from Its Beginnings through 332 BCE* <https://urldefense.com/v3/__https://www.posenlibrary.com/frontend/volume-1-overview__;!!KGKeukY!kzwSkXtkZfoLgAWTuzZaInQ7G0swhqRtncUo3b2F_K__skT2x9vIDH4xjsAfJtEfZvs$ >*, **edited by Jeffrey H.
