Do Jews Go to Heaven?: Jewish Beliefs on the Possible Afterlife (Hybrid)

Some Jewish people are convinced that Judaism has no afterlife, focusing instead on what people can do here and now in this world. Other Jews pray regularly for the coming of a messiah, the resurrection of the dead, and a place in the world to come. Historical Jewish beliefs have also included a shadowy Hades-like underworld called <i>She'ol</i>, and even reincarnation! How have Jewish beliefs about what might happen after we die evolved over the centuries? And what can these beliefs teach us about the human condition while we are still here? Rabbi Adam Chalom discusses these varying ideas and, hopefully, answers some questions.
