Ep. 301 - Bereshit with Leana Jelen Tapnack

<p>Way to kick off Season 3 ON A JEWISH HOLIDAY! We begin again with Parashat Bereshit, recording during our sofrut (Scribal Arts class) at school with our incredible teacher Leana Jelen Tapnack who helps us understand how it is that we can literally create our own Torah and stories, regardless of gender, fear of failure, or a limited knowledge base. We were also thrilled to welcome fourth year HUC-JIR rabbinic student (and fellow sofrut stan!) Ilana Symons.</p> <p>To continue the conversation:<br> Leana’s Instagram: <a href="https://www.instagram.com/sofer_so_good/" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">@sofer_so_good</a><br> Ilana’s Email: <a href="mailto:ilana.symons@huc.edu">ilana.symons@huc.edu</a><br> The Pardes Institute of Jewish Studies: <a href="https://www.pardes.org.il/" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">www.pardes.org.il</a><br> Stam Scribes: <a href="https://stamscribes.com/who-we-are/" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">www.stamscribes.com/who-we-are</a><br> Women’s Tefilin Gemach*: <a href="https://stamscribes.com/educational-programming/tefillin-loans/" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">www.stamscribes.com/educational-programming/tefillin-loans</a><br> *NOTE: The Gemach is open for borrowing for anyone who identifies as a non-cisgender man.</p> <p>Find us on social media:<br> Facebook: <a href="https://www.facebook.com/drinkinganddrashing">Drinking and Drashing: Torah with a Twist</a><br> Instagram: <a href="https://instagram.com/DrinkingandDrashing">@DrinkingandDrashing</a><br> Website: <a href="http://www.drinkinganddrashing.com/">www.drinkinganddrashing.com</a></p> <p>Our Discord Server: <a href="https://discord.gg/xeeghhpSy3">https://discord.gg/xeeghhpSy3</a></p> <p>Show the love with some Drinking and Drashing: Torah with a Twist merchandise at store.drinkinganddrashing.com, and don’t forget to subscribe and give us a rating on Apple Podcasts—it’s a great way to help our show grow!</p> <p>Edited by <a href="mailto:kategriffinsound@gmail.com">Kate Griffin</a></p>
