TUESDAY EVENINGS (7:00 PM-8:30 PM) NOV. 14, 28, DEC. 5, 12

Torah Trope with Jeff Schwarz: Learn Kol Emeth Torah trope, and begin your Torah reading journey in a fun and supportive atmosphere. We will study and sing together. Homework will be given, and home study will be encouraged. Materials will be provided at the first class. Hebrew reading fluency is required for this class.

Zionism through Formative Texts with Rabbi Booth - What does self-determination for the Jewish people mean? In this class we will explore several different conceptions of Zionism. We will begin with a brief look at the Scroll of Independence and then The Iron Wall, Jabotinsky's unsettlingly contemporary work from 1928. In week 2 we will explore several of the Basic Laws as a way to understand what passes for a constitution in Israel. Week 3 will be a look at several key Supreme Court decisions, and week 4 a dive into religious Zionism.
