Two thousand years before Masters & Johnson, the Rabbis were speaking about human sexuality in a very progressive way for the times.
Course Description:
Two thousand years before Masters & Johnson, the Rabbis were speaking about human sexuality in a very progressive way for the times. Through a reading of stories found in the Talmud, we will explore how the Rabbis saw love and sex not only as an integral part of life, but also as having the potential to be truly sacred moments - moments in which God is present.
