God's face hidden: Into the empty palace (2 of 3)

Yael Roberts 

Orange 13

When God hides as biblically promised, where does God go? We will explore sources on 'hester panim' (God's hidden face) in relation to the parable of the Ba'al Shem Tov about entering the Divine Palace. Who lurks at our centre and how do we approach? Can we find God? (Session is part of a series, but come to one or all!)
