His unparalleled ability to communicate complex Jewish ideas to Jew and non- Jew alike, and to integrate modern secular thought with Jewish learning, made him a unique public intellectual. Peter Sevitt and Marjorie Gann will discuss the ways in which Rabbi Sacks has enriched their understanding of Jewish thought and values, with a special focus on his last work, Judaism’s Life-Changing Ideas. Marjorie Gann is a long-time member of Narayever. A retired teacher, she is also a children’s author. Her most recent books are “Five Thousand Years of Slavery” and “Speak a Word for Freedom: Women Against Slavery”. Peter Sevitt is also a long-time member of Narayever with a passion for later life learning. He was the founder of Limmud Canada: A Festival of Jewish Learning and Culture.
