Shalhevet Kollel is a Talmud study session open to both women and men. 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*

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.

This Shabbat, join us in welcoming Scholar-in-Residence Rabbi Garth Silberstein to Bais Abe. Following morning services all are invited to a lunch and learn where Rabbi Silberstein will speak on the topic, "Is Work a Four Letter Word? Rabbinic Attitudes Towards Making a Living." He will also teach a shiur later during Seudah Shlishit titled "Letting Go - Practical and Spiritual Dimensions of the Sabbatical Year." Rabbi Silberstein is the rabbi at Knesset Israel Torah Center in Sacramento, CA. He is the founder and director of the Organic Yeshiva in Sacramento, and received smicha from Yeshivat Chovevei Torah Rabbinical School.
