Shabbat Limmud

Saturday, 20 February, 2021 • 8 Adar 5781

10:30 AM - 12:00 PMZoom

This shabbat, known as Shabbat Zakhor, or the Sabbath of Remembering, foreshadows Purim. Tradition teaches that Haman, the villain of the Purim tale, was an offspring of Amalek, whose cruel behavior to the wandering Israelites is recalled in the maftir, or additional Torah reading. We’ll enjoy a compact version of a shabbat morning service with song, prayer and reflection surrounding a focussed time of shared study, including a close reading of our biblical text along with rabbinic and contemporary commentary.

We encourage those who do not have a copy of our prayer book, Kol Haneshamah Shabbat Vehagim, to download a PDF of the Shabbat portions of the prayerbook (below). We will be offering some prayers and songs in the chat, but will not be sharing siddur pages during the service.


OrH Zoom protocols:

1. Please ensure that you sign in to the service using a screen name that clearly identifies you (i.e., first and last name or household name only). If you cannot be identified you may be removed from the service.

2. Please ensure that you are muted at all times, unless you are asked to unmute.

3. If you plan to call in to the service using one of the telephone access numbers, you  must send an email to techteam@orh.ca in advance of the service indicating the phone number you will use to sign in. If you cannot be identified you may be removed from the service.

4. During the service, you are welcome to use the “chat” function, whether in response to an invitation from the leader, or a reflection that arise for you from the prayers, songs, or teaching. We have always been a community that values the prayer leader’s platform, or “bimah” not as a “high place” (its literal meaning) but as a shared space. However, we ask that you please be judicious and thoughtful with the substance and timing of your chat interventions.

If you have any questions or challenges around using Zoom, please reach out to techteam@orh.ca. We look forward to greeting you in our virtual lobby and enjoying Shabbat together.
