Prayer in Translation: Remixing Psalm 96 (In Person)

July 11 | 4:30–6:00 pm

The poetry of Jewish prayer invites us to find our own voices within ancient words. In this interactive class with Dr. Christopher Doty, we’ll explore Psalm 96, a cosmic song of praise from the Kabbalat Shabbat service. Together, we’ll unpack the Hebrew text, compare translations across Jewish communities, and then create our own translations, bringing our personal, cultural, theological, and emotional selves into conversation with the liturgy. No Hebrew knowledge required—just an open heart and a curious mind!

We are deeply grateful to the family of Burton D. “Bud” Rose, M.D., who has underwritten the Summer Institute in loving memory of Bud, who was a lifelong teacher and student.
