THE TIMES-STANDARD
CALIFORNIA---Temple Beth El, located at Hodgson and T streets in Eureka, recently announced in a press release that it will display an original lithograph “by the great Jewish artist Marc Chagall” at 2 p.m. on March 2, a Sunday. The work is being presented to the congregation on extended loan by Humboldt State University Religious Studies Professor William Herbrechtsmeier. At the event, Herbrechtsmeier will give a short lecture on the early Biblical monarchy, a tale he describes as “the first great narrative in all of human literature.” The lecture will “highlight the Shakespearean-like drama of the lives of Samuel, Saul, David and Jonathan.” For more information, call 444-2846 or visit
