Olam Habah (the Afterlife) and Messianism Across the Denominations

December 03, 2025 7:00PM - 9:00PM

The afterlife remains a source of fascination for all of us. If we could be sure of its existence, many of us might make very different choices in our current lives. The entire question of morality, reward and punishment, and “why bad things happen to good people” would be even more difficult, if not impossible, to explain if nothing existed beyond. The very purpose of man’s existence is tied to this question.

Join us for an exploration of Jewish thought on the World to Come from three different perspectives: Orthodox, Conservative and Reform.

November 19 Rabbi Aryeh Wolbe, Torch
December 3 Rabbi David Mendelson, Beth Yeshurun
December 10 Rabbi Samuel Rheins, Beth Israel
