Text Study with Rabbi David

From The Beginning

We will read and discuss the Bible from Chapter 1 of the book of Genesis. Chapter after chapter we examine the 70 ways we can understand every verse and every chapter.  This class is a challenging and magical journey into the texts that are the foundation of our faith, tradition, and culture.

Intermediate Hebrew with Rabbi Rooks

Learn Hebrew through the meaningful lyrics of song and poetry. We will study familiar melodies and Israeli poets to build our vocabulary and comprehension. Join us for this spiritual journey into the depths of Jewish/Hebrew sources.

8:00-9:00 pm

Advanced Hebrew with Rabbi Rapport

Bring Your Hebrew To Life!  A comprehension based course on Hebrew reading and grammatical structures which will guide learners to know what they say when they pray and understand the words of Torah as they were written in their own day.
