We hope you can join us for the final lecture of the Fall '24 season! 10$C cash, refreshments incl.

Dr. Michele Murray, Department of Religion, Society and Culture, Bishop's University presents….
"The Book of Tobit from a Feminist Perspective.

The ancient book of Tobit is a striking work of humorous fiction in a long Jewish tradition of storytelling. But it is more than just an entertaining read. We might well laugh, but we cannot laugh too hard, for we also sympathize with the characters' sincere struggles to understand God's plan for their lives. Dr. Murray will discuss aspects of her recent feminist commentary on Tobit, such as grief, death, disability issues, and contending with why bad things happen to good people.
