Room 3
Join three British Jewish diplomats serving Her Majesty from the hallowed halls of the UN, the chaos and colour of Lutyens’ Delhi, and the intrigue of the People’s Republic of China. From promiscuous princes to treif receptions, far-flung Jewish communities, and guilt from their mothers for being far away, this is kosher diplomacy. Chatham House Rule applies!
Room 1
The Sermon on the Mount (Matthew 5-7) does not, contrary to some Christian readers, replace Judaism with Christianity. It is, rather, Jewish teaching given by the Jew Jesus to his Jewish disciples. Subjects include Matthew's portrayal of Jesus as a new Moses, beatitudes, Torah interpretation, the "Our Father," and Christian misinterpretations.
Room 2
