Tales of the Tzadikkim
Susan Gulack
We will study tales of some of the Tzaddikim, exploring the stories of righteous men and women through the ages. Some of the stories will be from the Talmud, some from Sefer Ha-aggadah, which is a collection of stories from the Rabbis that explain and explore the texts, and some from more contemporary sources such as Martin Buber, Yitzhak Buxbaum, Shlomo Carlebach, and Doug Lipman. We will talk about what we can learn from their lives and how their stories can help us. We will practice telling some of our favorite stories in our own ways and talk about ways of using them in our lives and our work.
