Rabbi Klein's Torah Study 2010-2011

It is the New Year 5771, and we are again starting Torah Study. Rabbi Klein's letter to participants explains the plan for the coming year, and is reprinted below.

"... This year we will focus on one of the most fascinating books in the entire Bible: The Book of Daniel. By scholarly consensus, Daniel was the last of the biblical books to be composed (during the period of the Maccabees) when the Jews came under massive assault and when the future looked perilous. In dealing with this crisis, the authors reached for new ideas and new insights. And so, aside from being a book filled with dramatic incidents and memorable characters … characters who remind us of earlier heroes like Joseph and Esther, Daniel introduces the first definitive expression of the notion of the Resurrection of the Body and pioneers a new understanding of how the world works … the worldview of the apocalypse. This extraordinary conception continues to find dramatic literary and real-life expression throughout history and down to our own day.

We will read The Book of Daniel carefully and then trace the development of the apocalyptic worldview in such post-biblical works like The First Book of Enoch, The Fourth Book of Ezra, the New Testament’s Book of Revelation, and others."
