ADULT EDUCATION
SHABBAT MORNING TORAH STUDY
Every Shabbat at 9:00 to 9:45 am when Rabbi Koas leads Services
Rabbi Koas teaches this class which focuses on a thoughtful reading of the parashah of the week and explores the historical, ethical and spiritual questions raised by the text.
We explore Torah on three levels:
What meaning did it hold in its original ancient setting?
How have our sages and commentators understood the text over the centuries?
What personal and communal meaning does it hold for us today?
Every session offers learning, lively interchange and ample opportunity for questions and discussion. People of all levels and backgrounds are welcome. Hebrew knowledge is not required. No prior study of the Torah or Hebrew knowledge is needed. It is not necessary to read ahead or prepare. Although this is an ongoing class, drop-in attendance is welcomed. Be sure to stay after the service to continue the conversation with Rabbi Koas.
More classes and study sessions will begin in November.
