This month, Talmud Study will be led by Rabbi Arthur Nemitoff. (Rabbi Heath Watenmaker will lead on April 24.) In this weekly class we study selections from the Talmud and other rabbinic sources. Our focus is on understanding what the texts meant to our ancestors and what they might mean to us today. No prior Talmud experience is necessary and the class is designed to allow participants to drop in and study whenever they can.
