SUMMARY:The Book of Job - Rabbi Howard Shub
DESCRIPTION:[vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text css=””] \nWhy do bad things happen to good people? That timeless question\, made famous by Rabbi Harold Kushner’s best-selling book\, has challenged humanity for centuries. How do we relate to God during times of personal or national tragedy? How do we reconcile our belief in a loving and compassionate God with suffering that seems to defy our understanding? And where does Satan fit into this picture? The Book of Job explores these enduring questions.\n\nZOOM\nFREE for B’nai Torah members | $36 for guests \n\nClick here to register\n \n\nRabbi Howard Shub is a first-generation Canadian Jew born in Toronto.  Raised in a traditional Jewish home where Yiddish was spoken as easily as English\, his Jewish identity was nurtured from an early age through family\, school\, and a Labour Zionist summer camp.He earned his undergraduate degree from Yeshiva University in New York and later completed an M.A. in Contemporary Jewish Studies\, specialising in modern Jewish history\, at the Hebrew University of Jerusalem. After several years in Israel\, he spent five years in Australia; first as Hillel Director in Melbourne\, and then in an unexpected role as a probation and parole officer working in a maximum security prison. Returning to North America\, Rabbi Howard pursued his true calling and was ordained at the Jewish Theological Seminary in New York in 1988. For nearly 40 years\, he served as a congregational rabbi\, retiring in June 2023\, only to return to a part-time pulpit and\, most recently\, as interim rabbi of the synagogue where he served for 23 years. He continues to teach Jewish topics across Florida and serves as mashgiach (kosher supervisor) at the only kosher deli in the area. \n​ \n[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][/vc_row]
