אם אין קמח אין תורה

Kehilat Be'erot is hosting Diana Lipton, the editor of the book *From Forbidden Fruit to Milk and Honey*, for an evening of Torah and food.

Diana will share with us the idea behind the project and the editing of the book. She will show us how reading the Torah through the lens of food reveals a new and exciting dimension of the text .

The talk will be followed by a food workshop, with registration ahead of time and a small fee.

Copies of the book will be available for purchase. Proceeds from sales of this book will go to Leket Israel, Israel’s national food bank.
