  1. Consider the meaning of exodus and liberation for the Israelites and for people today.  What are the forms of injustice and oppression that predominate today?  How has the exodus account inspired people on the margins of society, living as slaves, or facing political oppression?  How does/can the story of the biblical exodus speak today to people experiencing injustice?

  5. How has the Torah inspired liberation (and human/civil rights) movements?
  6. How has the Torah shaped Western civilization?
