Alexander the Great Learns Life Lessons from African Women Warriors – from the series Stories Our Rabbis Shared: Ancient Wisdom For Today with Rabbi Brad Artson


October 23rd, 2019 — Alexander the Great Learns Life Lessons from African Women Warriors

Jews have always been story whisperers. We received stories and launched as a people. We told stories about those stories and Oral Torah was born. And we have recounted tales about each other – our sages, their wisdom, foibles, and experiences. We knew (and know) that wisdom isn’t about timeless precepts; it’s found in lives actually lived and in lessons learned. Gather and listen as we share the wisdom stories of our sages of old and to the insights they offer!
