The prophet Joel foresaw a time when God’s spirit would be manifest, when men and women, young and old would dream dreams and see visions. Yet, despite having a rich tradition of dream interpretation, modern Judaism has given little spiritual credence to dreams. Drawing upon Jewish tradition, Kabbalah and the insights of modern psychology we will investigate how dreams can reveal the movement of the divine within us, leading us to wholeness and growth.
Rabbi Howard Avruhm Addison serves as Associate Professor for Instruction at Temple University and directs the Jewish Spirituality DMin program at the Graduate Theological Foundation. Certified as a Dreamworker by North Carolina’s Haden Institute, on whose faculty he serves, he teaches a GTF graduate tutorial in Spirituality and Dreams and an undergraduate course entitled “Dreams, Visions and the Good Life” at Temple. His most recent book, Seeking Redemption in an Unredeemed World, was published by GTF Books.

This class is offered as part of our Open Beit Midrash (Open House of Learning) series, which provides our community with a steady stream of learning opportunities that stir our hearts, ignite our minds, and inspire connections among one another. Our study is rooted in Jewish text and carried out through hevrutah (partnered) learning.
From November 10, 2020-May 11, 2021, we will gather every Tuesday night for learning. Each class in the series meets for three consecutive weeks and is facilitated by a different teacher. All texts are provided in the original language and in English translation, giving each hevrutah (learning pair) the ability to move at their own level and pace. All sessions will meet on Zoom until further notice.
