Iran & Israel: The Ancient Stories Beneath the Headlines
March 22 @ 10:30 am - 12:30 pm
Rev Lee Anne Washington
Much of the public conversation about Iran and Israel focuses on strategy, politics, and military power. What if current events in Iran and Israel cannot be fully understood through those alone? What if there is also an older layer of meaning–shaped by ancient historical memory, civilizational symbolism, and the self-understanding of peoples whose roots reach deep into the ancient world? Question: What do Esther, Mordecai, Haman, and Cyrus the Great have to do with the current war? Join us as Rev. Lee Anne offers an additional perspective–not to simplify the present, but to deepen our understanding of it.
