The power of love and the importance of food justice are central themes in the biblical Book of Ruth. It's one of the key texts read on the holiday of Shavuot, which starts tonight at sunset. Shavuot marks both the barley harvest and the giving of the Torah at Mount Sinai.
Please join your Nafshenu friends 7-8pm tonight on Zoom for a look at the Ruth story and the lighting of holiday candles.
Whether you're a regular at Nafshenu's Thursday evening Zoom Bible class or just want to see people you know for a discussion of love and food, you can join in at

Looking forward to seeing you! -- Rabbi David Goodman

PS, what's with the cheesecake slices in the headline? It's a Shavuot tradition to eat dairy treats on the holiday.
