Rabbi David Levin-Kruss: A King Behaving Badly: Playing Outside the Rules
In Leonard Cohen's Hallelujah, he explores the havoc caused by King David's love for Bathsheba and what it does to his morality, creativity and leadership. The song teaches us how we can be immensely creative and live worthwhile lives even, or especially, if the situation is dark or when we have done wrong. You will come out of this class understanding Cohen's literary sources, religious sensitivities, erotic imagery, and the language of music.
