The Diocese of Glasgow & Galloway hosts a monthly seminar on Theology & Religious Studies at Glasgow University The November Seminar will take place via Zoom on Tuesday 24th November at 5:30pm. The speaker will be Rabbi Raanan Mallek, a scholar, educator, and religious leader in the Masorti (Conservative) denomination of Judaism. He is currently the movement's municipal Rabbi of the Misgav region in Galilee, the executive director of the Galilee Foundation for Value Education, a member of the World Council of Churches International Reference Group and was a Board Member of Rabbis for Human Rights for the past five years. Rabbi Mallek has for many years been pioneering work in peacebuilding, interfaith relations, and human rights activism in Israel-Palestine and internationally. He brings to these issues both a profound and costly commitment, and a depth of rabbinic scholarship; he was recently published via Brill and additional writings of his may be read here. In 2017, Rabbi Mallek was identified by the World Council of Churches as one of the Twelve Faces of Hope in Israel-Palestine. |
