Easter Vigil Year A

Join Rev. Emily E. Ewing (they) and Rev. Kay Rohloff (she) and special guest Rabbi Becky Silverstein (he) to explore new and nerdy connections to the scripture for the Easter Vigil, which falls on April 8th (or 9th) this year, including our deep dive into Midrash! 

The scripture we refer to for this episode can be found here.  Make sure you check out the Trans Halakha Project that Becky mentioned from SVARA.  To learn more about Judaism, check out Sefaria for a variety of Jewish texts and My Jewish Learning for a variety of topics.  For more on Passover, check out last year’s Maundy Thursday episode with Rabbi Maurice Appelbaum.  For a great retelling of Jonah, Becky recommends The Soul of the Stranger by Joy Ladin. If you want to return to our Lenten bookend with more Trans brilliance, revisit our TRANSfiguration episode from this year with Rev. Nicole Garcia, Rev. Emerson Remy Remmers, and Rev. Mack Patrick!
