Rabbi Dr. Sarit Kattan Gribetz

Sarit Kattan Gribetz is Associate Professor in the Religious Studies Department and the Program in Jewish Studies at Yale University. Her first book, Time and Difference in Rabbinic Judaism examines how rabbinic texts use time to define Jewish identity.

Sarit received her B.A. and Ph.D. from Princeton University’s Department of Religion and studied Talmud and Archaeology at the Hebrew University of Jerusalem as a Fulbright Fellow. Before joining the faculty at Yale, Sarit spent a decade at Fordham University, where she served as Associate Professor of Classical Judaism in the Theology Department and Co-Director of Fordham’s Center for Jewish Studies.
