RECORDING OF The Hidden Order of Intimacy: Book Launch with Avivah Zornberg and Stephen Frosh

Join us for an exclusive conversation between Dr Avivah Gottlieb Zornberg and Professor Stephen Frosh about Avivah's latest book, The Hidden Order of Intimacy: Reflections on the Book of Leviticus. 
 
About the book: The Hidden Order of Intimacy is the latest volume in Avivah Zornberg's award-winning series of commentaries on the Torah. Although Leviticus is seen by many as a relatively dry, legalistic text, Zornberg draws on midrash, medieval commentary, philosophy, psychoanalysis, and contemporary literature to explore deeper meanings in the text.
