Havdalah: 5:52 pm Torah Portion: Shlach
Message from The Rabbi Parshat Shlach: Why did the entire generation that came out of Egypt wander the desert for 40 years and perish before entering the Promised Land? Is that what God brought them out for? And though the People had lost faith upon hearing the scout's report regarding the land and its inhabitants, why was there no opportunity for teshuva (repentance) even when they had a change of heart?

Book Club 2:00 PM on Wednesday 13 July at KN.
The book we will be discussing on that day is:
MORE THAN I LOVE MY LIFE BY BOOKER PRIZE NOMINEE, DAVID GROSSMAN
More Than I Love My Life is the story of three strong women: Vera, age ninety; her daughter, Nina; and her granddaughter, Gili, who at thirty-nine is a filmmaker and a wary consumer of affection. A bitter secret divides each mother and daughter pair, though Gili--abandoned by Nina when she was just three--has always been close to her grandmother. More Than I Love My Life was inspired by the true story of one of David Grossman's longtime confidantes, a woman who, in the early 1950s, was held on the notorious Goli Otok ("the Adriatic Alcatraz"). With flashbacks to the stalwart Vera protecting what was most precious on the wretched rock where she was held, and Grossman's fearless examination of the human heart, this swift novel is a thrilling addition to the oeuvre of one of our greatest living novelists, whose revered moral voice continues to resonate around the world.
