• Talmud on Tuesday, 6:00pm
  The Talmud is an extensive compilation of teachings and opinions of thousands of rabbis over the centuries, covering matters of Jewish law, ethics, philosophy, history, customs, and more. For over a year, our “Talmud on Tuesday” group has been learning Tractate Megillah from the Babylonina Talmud. On Tuesday, Feb. 20 we concluded our study of the tractate. And, so, as per our tradition, as soon as one thing is concluded, we begin something new: we begin again. Join us tonight as we begin our study of Tractate Shabbat. The only pre-requisite is a desire to learn! Learn about the law and lore in the Talmud with Rabbi Robert Eisen as we dig deep into living Judaism. Open to all. No charge to attend.
