Fasting: A spiritual practice or a religious obligation?

This week the holy month of Ramadan begins. In solidarity with our Muslim brothers and sisters, who will be fasting this month, we will look at the Jewish fast days. Most of us know about the fast on Yom Kippur but what about the other Jewish fast days? In this class, we will look at all of them, their origins, and their purposes. We will take time to share our experiences and explore the spiritual underpinnings of fasting in Judaism and other religious traditions.
