Hashkama Minyan - Rabbi Blanchard's Blurb
  • Many activities create material culture. There are the manifold actions involved in hunting and gathering, in agriculture, in the construction of houses, cities and roads and the entire technology of the contemporary world. Is there a unity or unifying power behind or within the material culture that serves as a basis for the scientific and spiritual achievements of humanity? If we suspended material culture creating for one day, a kind of Sabbath, would all categories of such "work" be seen as equally important within  some underlying unity that binds all categories together? 
  • Reflections based on Exodus 35:2-3 and Shabbat 70a in the Babylonian Talmud.
