We are learning Mashechet Rosh Hashannah, alternating teachers Maharat Picker Neiss and Dr. Jack Shapiro (Rabbi Ben Greenfield will be filling in for Jack Shapiro through January). Men and women are welcome to join for some serious Talmud study. Beginners will be able to follow too. 7:00-8:00pm every Sunday. Conact phyllis.shapiro1@gmail.com with any questions.

*For University Students* The Ketubah, the Jewish marriage contract, is essential for understanding how Judaism conceives of marriage. But in the Talmud, this document meant to create commitment becomes the starting point for understanding Jewish approaches to obligation, promises, and partnership in all kinds of relationships. Together we'll study this tractate -- known as the "the mini-Talmud" because of the vast range of topics it covers -- in depth, and in the original Aramaic, with supplementary English translation.

Join Rabbi Greenfield each week at the Crown Center, 8350 Delcrest, where participants will zone in on a few passages from the Parsha, to understand what the words of the Torah are trying to tell us, how the legendary commentator Rashi reframes these words, and why - or why not - we agree with Rashi’s take on the Parsha.
