Digging Deeper: Archaeology and the Bible with Frankie Snyder
In this series, we will be looking at the intersection of the Bible and archaeology: how archaeological finds have shed light on Biblical texts or how Biblical texts have shed light on archaeological finds. Each class will focus on a different archaeological find or group of finds, sometimes on an archaeological site, and dig into the Bible to see how these discoveries help us give new meaning to familiar Biblical texts.
Register for any number of classes. Zoom only.
Tuesdays 7:00-8:00 PM via Zoom

Frankie Snyder is a native of Richmond who has recently returned to the city after a 50-year absence. Frankie spent the past 14 years living in Jerusalem, where she worked as an archaeologist. Her academic background includes a Master's degree in Judaic Studies from Hebrew College in Boston, and she is a licensed Israeli tour guide. Although her primary specialty is the opus sectile tiles used by King Herod in his palaces and on the Temple Mount, her 13 years of archaeological wet-sifting experience for various sites around Jerusalem and digs around Israel have given her wide-ranging expertise in the identification of "small finds" often overlooked in archaeological reports. With this varied background, Frankie will host an adult education series entitled "Digging Deeper: Archaeology and the Bible."
Reading Hebrew with Rabbi Sherry Grinsteiner is coming soon.
