Jewish Perspectives on Rituals of Death and Mourning

Details

To obtain the Zoom information, you MUST register on our website: https://rootsandroads.org/honor-flight-southern-arizona/

Jewish tradition prescribes a fixed set of rituals from just before a death, through the first week, month and year after, and annually beyond that. These rituals are designed to both honor the dead and comfort the mourners. What are these rituals, and how do they support the process of grieving? Join Dr. Gila Silverman as we explore Jewish rituals through the lenses of ancient text, modern psychology, and lived experience.
