This is an especially successful program for teenagers in interfaith families who have not had the opportunity to study Jewishly but now wish to do so. This is a drop-in class for people of all levels of Jewish learning to come together for a Shabbat experience of study and conversation. Refreshments are served. In the first hour, we read from the Torah portion of the week, discussing many related issues as questions arise. Our approach is very open to a wide range of opinions.
Participation is welcome.
In the second hour, we continue slowly making our way through the entire Bible. We are now in the book of the prophet, Isaiah. We conclude with a Shabbat kiddush and motzi over challah. Rabbi Roberts leads most sessions. Knowledge of Hebrew is not required.
