Temple Beth Shalom offers course about Jerusalem

An interfaith perspective of the city of Jerusalem will be presented during a three-part course in March at Temple Beth Shalom of the West Valley, 12202 N. 101st Ave. 

TBS Rabbi Dana Evan Kaplan and Rev. Bruce Scott, The Friends of Israel Gospel Ministry Director of Program Ministries, will discuss what makes Jerusalem so exciting from both a historical and contemporary perspective by exploring the city and focusing on three famous sites. 

This team approach to exploring Jerusalem by a rabbi and a minister, both who have spent a considerable amount of time in Jerusalem, will enable the participants to gain both Jewish and Christian perspectives of this ancient city.  

Rev. Scott and Rabbi Kaplan will look at the old city of Jerusalem and focus primarily on the Western Wall and Western Wall tunnels, the Temple Mount and the city of David.   

The course will be from 10-11:30 a.m. Thursdays, March 6, 13 and 20. People of all faiths are invited to this popular interfaith series.
