JCC Brunch & Learn Event: The Hidden Miracle of Purim

The next JCC Brunch and Learn Program will be on Thursday, Feb. 25, at 10:30 a.m. This month Rabbi Aaron Gaber will speak about “The Hidden Miracles of Purim.”

But where is the miracle of Purim? you might ask if you have read the story of Esther. There is no parting of a sea, manna from heaven or Biblical floods. Purim is about the hidden miracles of history. Rabbi Gaber will offer new insights into the ancient story.

Following the speaker the group will watch the documentary, “Herod’s Lost Tomb.” The film examines the search for the tomb and includes visits to renowned sites such as Caesarea, Masada and the Second Temple of Jerusalem.

A bagel brunch will be served. This Brunch & Learn event is free and open to the entire community. It is sponsored by Lighthouse Planning Services. For more information, or to RSVP, call Josh Cutler at 822-1167 extension 138 or email JCutler@jccatlantic.org.
