We have added a new section to Verses Illuminated--Video Resources.
The first video offering, "Illustrated Jewish Values at End of Life," is available free for you to use as a teaching aid. The video is a great introduction to learning about the last phase of the life cycle. It employs a unique approach developed by educator Rabbi Joshua Elkin, PhD by presenting the topic from the aspect of Jewish values rather than simply telling what we "do" in chronological order. In this way the emphasis is on the meaning of what we do.
Have a look! It's 11 minutes long and is illustrated with my drawings executed on the iPad.
If you would like to receive (approximately monthly) announcements of what's new at Verses Illuminated, including my upcoming booklet, "Journey of the Mourner, Journey of the Soul: A Jewish Map," please sign up here.
Blessings,
Rabbi Me'irah
