Torah Study

Home > Learn > Torah Study

Join us for Torah Study every Saturday morning from 9:30 am to 10:30 am in the Temple Community Room. Sessions are typically led by Rabbi Jennifer Jaech, and sometimes led by guests, but are always thought-provoking. We explore not only the weekly Parshah, but the full range of sacred texts, liturgy, as well as ancient and modern commentary that add depth and insight to the discussion. Who wrote the words we read in the Bible, and why? What were the socio-political underpinnings when these documents were written, and how are they relevant today? There is so much to learn, and we have a great time each week uncovering nuggets that add to our experience as Jews. This is not your parent's Bible class!

"Our sacred tradition evolved out of human searching. If we understand the human condition, we can understand the Divine."
