Of Golems and Geniuses

 Rabbi Yehudah Loew of Prague, known as the Maharal, was one of the outstanding Jewish minds of the sixteenth century. He is best-known as the creator of the mysterious Golem. The Maharal’s approach to Talmud and Jewish philosophy are the foundation of modern Chassidus and his works are studied by Jews across the spectrum.

Rabbi Mendel Moscowitz will explore the history and folklore surrounding this towering Jewish figure.
