From Adjunct Prof. Gary Burge: “On October 7, the world witnessed the shocking attack by Hamas (Gaza) on Israel. Now we are watching the overwhelming Israeli retaliation. Thousands of lives have been lost. More will still die. Calvin Seminary is hosting a speaker who can address these issues. As a Jew, Mark Braverman has been an active analyst/prophet for all-things-Israel. I’ve worked with Mark on various international efforts to bring reconciliation and peace to Israel and the Palestinians. He is an “area expert” who can address these questions and host a lively discussion. Make this a priority. We will discuss one of the world’s greatest crises of 2023 – and each of us will be referring back to it for decades to come.”
