Classes
Wednesday Evening Rabbi’s Parashah Study Group
Each Wednesday evening, Rabbi Bronstein leads a tour of the “Par’shat Hashavua,” the Torah portion of the week. The class will look at plot, themes, language, poetry, theology, history, and, of course, commentary. The class is intended to be stimulating for the adept AND a worthwhile learning experience for novices, including non-Hebrew readers.
Thursday Morning Rabbi’s Talmud Study Group: Legends of the Talmud
The morning study group meets each Thursday morning in the library and makes its way through the Steinsaltz translation and commentary on the Talmud. Good food for thought and good company. You can drop in anytime or become a regular. No prerequisites other than a love of Jewish learning.
Check the calendar for complete schedule.
