The Annual Martin Buber Lecture

Rabbi Jonathan Wittenberg is the Senior Rabbi of Masorti Judaism UK. He is a leading writer and thinker on Judaism. He is rabbi of New North London Synagogue with approximately 2,400 members. He is also a member of the Elijah Interfaith Institute. He has published several books on widely diverse subjects, all of which, together with his blog, can be found on his website.

For our Martin Buber Lecture, his starting point will be his latest book, “Things My Dog taught me, and then broaden his talk to include his other interests and those of his audience. So please come along and ask him whatever you like!

‘There’s a special art to doing just one thing, at one time, with the whole of one’s self. To appreciate what that looks like, all one has to do is watch a dog staring at a biscuit. Every facet of its being, the alignment of its head, the gaze of its eyes, the poise of its posture, are all directed at that small but infinitely desirable object’.
