Talmud Study is a weekly class led by a member of the Beth Am clergy. During these educational sessions, 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.
