Forgive?

Lillian Jossem Fund of Jewish Federation of St. Louis.
Following the program, please join us for dinner in our dining
room to help welcome the Jewish New Year (Rosh Hashanah). Enjoy a

Too often the pain inflicted by others makes forgiving them
difficult or even impossible. And yet, Maimonides teaches that a
person is forbidden to be cruel and not forgive the person who has
wronged them when they ask wholeheartedly. Join Rabbi Jonah Zinn,
from Congregation Shaare Emeth, for this discussion. Explore how
Jewish tradition
understands our responsibility to forgive those who have wronged
us.
