A Crispe Chanukah (2)


We welcome Asher Crispe to Sinai Live. He and his wife are great additions to the group of bright, insightful and articulate spiritual guides.
Rabbi Asher Crispe is the Director of the Institute for Jewish Thought and Culture, an independent non-profit organization celebrating Jewish accomplishment in the arts and sciences. A doctoral student at New York University in Philosophy of Religion, Rabbi Crispe is a warm and engaging speaker whose talent is taking the esoteric and often inaccessible texts and concepts of Kabbalah and Chassidic philosophy and making them palpable and understandable to the general public. While living abroad, he spent a year as a research fellow for Mercaz Shalem, the national policy institute for public policy and social thought in Israel. He has also been a guest lecturer at numerous Torah centers and universities, both in Israel and abroad, and has appeared both on television and radio programs. He specializes in teaching week-long seminars in the arts and sciences as seen through the lens of the Torah.

Enjoy Rabbi Crispe's talk on Channukah and levels of darkness.
