Talmud Study
“In many ways the Talmud is the most important book in Jewish culture, the backbone of creativity and of national life.” (Adin Steinsaltz)
For more than a decade, a group has gathered at Temple Isaiah for a noon time Talmud study session with Rabbi Roberto D. Graetz. Some students have been with the group since its inception, other have come on board along the way, and new participants join the group every year. The noon-time hour together will be spent using rabbinic texts as the springboard for lively conversations around daily Jewish practices, Jewish thought and Jewish personalities. We will enter into ‘virtual’ discussions with ancient teachers and modern thinkers alike. Learning how our rabbinic ancestors think and why they think what they think can help us understand who we are, why we make the choices we do, and how we can enrich our own Jewish journeys.
Where: The Oneg Room at Temple Isaiah
When: Thursdays from 12:00 to 1:00 PM
If you wish to combine this hour of study with lunch, please make sure to arrive early or stay after the class.
