Movie Night at Temple Sholom of West Essex

The film, “SOFERET: A SPECIAL SCRIBE” will be presented at 5 p.m. 

The ancient Jewish sages say that everyone is commanded to write a Torah. But does everyone mean men and women? This award winning documentary tells the story of a Canadian orthodox woman, perhaps the first female ritual scribe. Her quest is highly controversial and the film thought provoking and well worth watching.

Rabbi Groffman will lead a discussion following the film.  Bring a sandwich - soup and dessert will be provided.
