Rabbi Yitz Greenberg in Conversation with 92NY’s Rabbi David Ingber: The Triumph of Life
92NY
Join leading Jewish thinker Rabbi Yitz Greenberg for an inspiring dialogue about his new book The Triumph of Life, a narrative of the relationship between God and humanity as expressed in the Jewish journey through modernity, the Holocaust, the creation of Israel, and the birth of Judaism’s next era.
In The Triumph of Life, Greenberg describes Judaism’s utopian vision of a world created by a God who loves life, who invites humans to live on the side of life, and who enables the forces of life to triumph over death. The Bible proclaims our mission of tikkun olam, repairing the world, such that every human image of God is sustained in the fullness of our dignity. To achieve our mission Judaism offers a realistic, personal, incremental partnership between God and humanity across generations in which human beings grow ever more responsible for world repair.
