Dybbuks, Ghosts and Golems: Demons and Dark Forces in Judaism For our Torah talk on Halloween eve, we’ll explore a topic that we don’t talk about much – supernatural forces of evil in Judaism. Jews in more superstitious ages than our own believed that these Jewish demons were powerful and dangerous. They can still exert a hold on the Jewish imagination — and you never know when one of them will rear its ugly head again.
Bring a vegetarian/dairy dish for a pot luck dinner and discussion.
Shabbat service to follow.
