"More important than writing, is erasing." - The Kotzker Rebbe

 

 

Course Description :

The life and teachings of one of the most controversial, yet charismatic, Chassidic rabbis of all time, Menachem Mendel Morgenstern of Kotzk, “The Kotzker Rebbe” (1787-1859).

Leaving no written record of his own, his legacy, personal Torah and life observations, were collected and published by his followers, ironically, in opposition to one of his most well-known teachings:

Not everything a person thinks should be said; not everything said should be written; nor everything written should be published.”

Join me in a fascinating journey, Kotzk’s never ending quest for Truth, as we explore the teachings of my favorite Chassidic rabbi:  “The Kotzker.”

Dates: Feb. 1, 8, 15, 22; Mar. 1, 8, 15, 22; Apr. 5, 12

Mondays, 7:00 - 8:30pm (EST)
