I'm so excited about my upcoming research! With the help of my professors at the Pacifica Graduate Institute and expert readers and advisors in the Jewish community, I feel that this subject will be one in which I will learn so very much more than ever expected. The process over these next two years in Jerusalem, Los Angeles, New York, Toronto, and Austin I'm sure will expose me to some of the many mysteries and revelations of this intimate poem.
This past week I learned that two of the verses are sung in a minor key, attesting to their sobering content. Thank you Cantor Melanie for this information.
Meanwhile, my friend Anat is helping and coaching me with my Hebrew and my ulpan placement test for this summer's learning in Jerusalem - whew!
Thank you also to RJ's comment referencing Rabbis Diamond and Goldfarb at the Conservative Yeshiva - I'll speak with them this summer! I humbly request that you continue to leave comments on this blog sharing personal stories of Lecha Dodi. Todah rabah.
