Summary of New Testament From a Jewish Point of View Class - 5/30/2022

A Modern Mikveh 

Even though it was Memorial Day, we decided to run the class as usual.  It was a bit difficult since both Jo Ann and Dan were on the road after a wedding that took place in Texas and Karen was also on the road.  It was a small (but great) group due to the holiday:  Karen, Odette, Dave, Norky and Jo Ann and Dan (sort of) attended.  

Unfortunately, Jo Ann kept getting kicked out of the Zoom room, but because she made Karen, Odette, and Dave co-hosts, the meeting did go on!

We read Chapters 6, 7, 8 in 2nd Corinthians.  

I’m not sure too much of what was discussed since I couldn’t hear, but the movie and book Unorthodox came up when there was a discussion about being cleaned from sins on Yom Kippur but also orthodox Jewish women need that cleaning monthly at the Mikveh.

We did discuss Mikvehs and I was surprised no one except me had actually visited and seen one.  I also told everyone that women go to Mikvehs discreetly and there are men’s Mikvehs too where dishes are washed.

Here’s a link to a review Jo Ann wrote on the Netflix series Unorthodox.

There was some discussion on who Titus was.  He was a friend of Paul’s.

Now…please…please…add to this summary since Jo Ann really missed most of it due to a very bad cell-internet signal on the road.  I’m glad I could make everyone co-hosts so you all could study!
