Parashat Ki Tavo 2014/5774 (Triennial I) — Having a Positive Outlook

In this week’s Torah portion, the Israelites ask God to look upon them positively: “Look down (hashkifah) from Your holy abode, from heaven, and bless Your people Israel” (Deuteronomy 26:15). What gives the Israelites the confidence that God will look upon them positively, and is there a lesson from this on how we can retain a positive outlook even in gloomy moments?

We will explore this question of how to have a positive outlook through an exploration of the hebrew term used in this verse — “hashkafah.”

Please join us for this fascinating class!
